The color grid included in MBA Bulletin #1 (which we will send electronically in mid-June) will give you an idea of what your day-to-day academic schedule will look like.  We have included dates for waiver exams, some optional activities, and social events.  You will be registered for courses according to the cluster to which you are assigned.  MBA Bulletin #1, indicates your specific cluster. You will receive your cohort assignment upon arrival on August 4. Bulletin #2 (which we will add to the Arrival Binder) will also give you valuable information about Pre-Term and its requirements and will include updated schedules.
