Ned omeeisiate Yy For third year, Misericordia caps enrollment College Misericordia has placed a cap on freshman enroll- ment for the third consecutive year. No new applications are be- ing processed for full-time fresh- men expecting to start in fall 2004. Transfer students may still, however, apply for fall. “We remain committed to our promise of personalized attention at College Misericordia,” says Dr. Michael A. MacDowell, presi- dent. “Therefore, it is essential that we manage our incoming group of first-year students care- fully, while still providing access to as many as possible.” As of June 9, College Miseri- cordia expected an arriving class of over 320 first-year students bringing its total full-time enroll ment to over 1,420 students. Both numbers match the college’s freshman and overall full-time en- rollment goals for this year. In fall of 2002, College Miseri- cordia welcomed a record incom- ing class of 350 freshmen, and in 2003 capped freshman enroll- ment at 320. Not affected by the temporary cap are prospective part-time students, graduate and undergraduate, as well as transfer students and adult learners in Misericordia’s accelerated EX- PRESSWAY program, which is launching a new degree in Health Care Management for: fall 2004. Full-time transfer students who are academically eligible will also be accepted. Many openings exist for part time study at Misericordia’s Dal- las campus, and Expressway sites for the master’s degree in Organi- zational Management. The cap does not affect enrollment for spring 2005. For those still inter- ested in full-time enrollment for fall 2004, the Admissions Depart- ment will keep a waiting list in the event of withdrawals. Students interested in fall 2005 enrollment can attend the next on-campus open house on Satur- day, August 7, 2004. + ro Students honored AGRI at Wyoming Sesfialy Lower School Wyoming Seminary piented awards to outstanding Lower School students at the "annual eighth-grade graduation ceremo- ny held June 3 on the Lo School campus in Forty Fort.
