Looking toward fall 2007

The WVVA Masters Online Cohort is moving forward wonderfully! Not only is it a "go" but a "go" with some great candidates who have submitted their applications to be part of the program.

Each week I get an update about applications and each week the list gets longer. It is not too late! We would love to have you in the cohort if you live in VA or WV. The application process takes about a month to put together. Give yourself enough time in order to receive your admittance by July.

The fall 2007 semester begins August 23 and we will have onsite orientations in VA and WV during the week of August 13.

Remember: (1) There is no ALA-approved Master of Library and Information Science in VA or WV. Because of that, USC-SLIS is able to offer in-state tuition. (2) The program is designed as a 4 year program but you may accelerate that time. (3) All of the courses will be offered online. (4) Four onsites are planned: orientation, e-portfolios, internships, and graduation. SLIS will come to you - WV and VA.

If you have been thinking about beginning a Masters program, this might be just what you need and have been looking for.
