Dear Prospective Student,
Given these unprecedented times, there is a lot of uncertainty. Understandably, you may be unsure about going to a university this fall. Many others share similar feelings and concerns. So, if you made a late decision to stay home and wait on a 4-year school, we have some good news to share with you. You can still apply for admission to our renowned Honors Program: Honors at Brookdale. We will be accepting applications until August 8th. After that date, we close the process for this upcoming semester. But we will also accept applicants for spring admission. Another option is to try an Honors class without being in the program. That option is permitted only once.
We strongly encourage you to view everything our website has to offer you, including our new brochure, testimonials, transfer agreements, benefits, universities to which our students have transferred, and more. Our hope is that you will find Honors at Brookdale to be a great springboard to wherever you desire to transfer and continue your educational goals.
Thank you for considering Honors at Brookdale. I wish you and your loved ones all the best in these trying times.
Sincerely,
Professor Moschberger
Coordinator, Honors at Brookdale
