ADMISSION WAITING LIST POLICY
In the event that all positions in the CLS program are filled for a given semester (Fall or Spring), qualified applicants may be accepted and placed on a waiting list. Applicants will be ranked based on overall GPA and US citizenship. If a position does not become available in that semester, the applicant’s acceptance to the CLS program will be deferred to the next semester (Spring or Fall). These applicants will have priority standing for positions in the next entering class.
