Directors Note:
Welcome to the start of the Fall semester! While
classes are getting started for the Fall 2012 semester, student applications
are starting up for the Fall 2013 semester. Some have a hard time
remembering the date; I have a hard time remembering the year! We want to
make this admissions cycle better than the last, so you can expect more
communication from the Admissions Office about your applicants and
deadlines. Ready or not, here they come!!
