Application Instructions
Submit your completed application to 570 University Hall by Wednesday September 10th at 3:00
P.M. It will be briefly reviewed by the class coordinators, who will randomly select 50 completed
applications. The selected applications will then be used to construct the class based on small group
preferences and drop-in center availability. Though we expect you to complete the application
thoroughly and thoughtfully, the selection process is mostly random–everybody has an equal
chance of being accepted. This process is not meant to be capricious. Instead, it was the fairest and
most democratic method we could devise. (You know, the whole “practice what you preach” thing.)
Tours of the drop-in centers will be held on Monday, September 8 at the Womenʼs and Youth Clinics and on Tuesday, September 9 at the General Clinic during operating hours. In order for your application to be considered complete, you must attend one of these tours. Tours will leave from the Sproul Fountain at the time designated. Make sure your name is taken down. You are encouraged to tour as many clinics as you are interested in.
General Clinic: 7:00 PM, 7:30 PM, 8:00 PM.
Womenʼs Clinic: 7:30 PM and 8:00 PM.
Youth Clinic: 7:00 PM and 7:30 PM.
leaving from Sproul Fountain sharp.
