Academic Counseling December Update
Please take a moment to read the following important dates and deadlines from the Academic Counseling department.
Is your student registered for J-term?
With J-term courses beginning soon, it is a good idea to check with your student to see if they are registered. J-term is optional but does come with an additional charge. The Financial Aid Office can help advise on funding options.

We want to make sure that juniors and seniors are aware that commencement will fall on Memorial Day weekend in 2019 and 2020.
Has your Student Completed their Math Requirement?
