Learn About the Admissions Process

You’ll have the chance to ask questions live or submit questions through your registration. Sessions will not be recorded. 

If the pre-scheduled small group advising times do not work with your schedule or you have follow-up questions from the session you attended, you are welcome to schedule an individual appointment with Director Henning.
