What is an Information Session?

An Information Session is an informal discussion focused on a specific degree program or programmatic option offered by the School. The primary purpose of Information Sessions is to provide information in greater detail than is currently available in our recruitment materials. Program faculty and staff from the Office of Admissions and Student Services lead participants in an overview of the program, requirements for admission, application process, planned curriculum, and student aid. Individual consultation with faculty or staff is available at the conclusion of each session.

Sessions are scheduled in proximity to the fall and spring application deadlines. Most sessions are held in the School of Nursing, affording participants unfamiliar with the School the opportunity to tour the building following the discussion. Sessions are held in the early evening to ease parking constraints.
