• To build an environment of understanding and acceptance for all students regardless of ethnicity, nationality, gender, or religion.

Office Hours

During some of the month of September and October, the main admissions officer will be out of the office on maternity leave. Her replacement will need more time than usual to process documents, so please have patience. Also, any complicated immigration issues (such as reinstatements and changes of status) will need to be directed toward an immigration lawyer. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
