Good Morning,

 

I hope everyone is having a great semester! 

 

Please help me share this information with your students.

 

EMCC will be hosting our Honors Orientation on March 25^th!   This event is for students with a 20 or higher on their ACT (or if anybody is close please let me know and I can make an exception).

 

This orientation gives them the opportunity to finalize admissions, scholarships and register for fall and/or summer classes.  They will be the first students at EMCC to register for classes and by doing so it secures their place in the dorm before the dreaded wait list begins.

 

I have attached a flyer for more information, please, please, please help me get this information to your students.

 

If I can help in any way please let me know.

 

Thank you,

 

 

David Williams
