Students must register in person and bring a letter from their high school principal or guidance counselor verifying they will be enrolled in high school during the fall of 2000.

The fall semester runs from Wednesday, Sept. 6, to Friday, Dec. 12. Exam dates will be announced. For more information call the College of Arts and Sciences at (203) 254-4000, ext. 2221.
