(There is Never Any Cost to Apply For Admission)
Enrollment is limited: Simply meeting the technical requirements for enrollment does not guarantee admission. Your overall presentation and other subjective factors may play a role in determining if you are a good fit for our programs.

September 1 (for students that have applied, been accepted, and paid a tuition payment by July 30)

(B) WHEN TO APPLY
Applications are considered all year long, so you may apply anytime. You will begin your studies on one of the start dates listed above (September 1, May 1, or January 1), depending on our schedule and when your payment is received.

All payments for Tuition, and other costs can be made by going to the “How To Pay” page in the navigation bar above.
(D) EVALUATION OF APPLICATION
When your Application Documents are received, we may contact you for further information. We will then consider your Application,
a. to determine if you meet the educational requirements
b. to determine if you are entitled to any credits for courses previously taken
c. to determine, based on your submissions, whether we feel you will be able to complete the program successfully
d. to determine, whether or not to issue an Acceptance Letter. If you receive a non-acceptance letter and you disagree, you will have the opportunity to comment on the reviewer’s concerns, in which case, if a satisfactory response is received, you will be accepted to the program. In some cases an application is so incomplete as to only justify notice by email.
We hope to complete all reviews within about 10 business days.
(E) WHAT TO DO AFTER ACCEPTANCE
When you receive an Acceptance Letter, you will be told your trimester starting date. We estimate that 30 days is required for a student to organize his/her internet connection, to obtain applicable texts, and to arrange for tuition payment. Plus, the University needs time as well to create your private student portal, assign available faculty to your courses, and to upload your course materials.
In order to complete your application and enrollment process, please pay the tuition and any other fees required, following receipt of your Acceptance Letter and Invoice.
