Enrollment Procedures
Applicants who are successfully admitted into the school will receive a Letter of Acceptance, a copy of the Catalog and Student Handbook, and an Enrollment Agreement to review and sign. Receipt of this paperwork, along with a $250 deposit, constitutes enrollment in the program. Please see refund section for information on cancelling after enrollment agreement is submitted. Failure to complete the registration process may result in a delay in beginning the program.
Because students in each year of the Reiss-Davis Graduate School program are part of a cohort with whom they progress through the didactic courses, and because the curriculum is sequential, students will be enrolled in courses appropriate for the students’ term and year in the program.
