Prospective Student Open Houses
We highly recommend that you and your student join us for a Prospective Student Open house prior to our Admissions lottery in January. This event is on campus and gives you and your student first-hand information of our programs and campus.
**We do not offer shadowing or individual tours due to the large number of applicants and the need to preserve instructional time for our students.
