Markki, While your statements are true, we do have to be very careful about making any 'promises' about salary. What you may believe to be a broad statement could be misinterpreted by a prospective student. Donna Guisado

Questions Prospective Students Have

Markki, It is also acceptable to refer them to websites such as the occupational outlook website provided by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This provides a wealth of information which can be considered reliable. Donna Guisado

Physical Notebook or Electronic? Which format?

Markki, I come from a time when there was NO electronic option...so I too,like to have a printed copy on hand. For convenience sake, and consistent updating as you mentioned, electronic cannot be beat! Donna Guisado

Arielle, That is really a protection for the school. We never want to be "locked in" to a guarantee that we can't keep for any unforeseen circumstances (loss of faculty for example). Donna Guisado

Your Institution's Catalog

Arielle, The state...and very often institutional and programmatic accrediting agencies...are VERY particular about wording! They will closely examine the wording on an institution's website, catalog, enrollment agreement; anything that would be provided to a prospective student. Donna Guisado
