Summer Admissions Workshop Trailer |
Summer Admissions Workshops are geared for potential students who are strategizing for the upcoming admissions cycle. Offered two times during the summer months, detailed information on increasing applicant competitiveness and the ins-and-outs of the admissions process are chief topics. SCCO students and faculty speak. Along with potential students, parents/significant others are invited to attend to learn more about what our program has to offer, as well as a Financial Aid briefing. Reservations are a must and space is limited. Click here for the event flyer with RSVP information and parking instructions. |
