How Do I Enroll in SAIL?
Once you have applied to the College and have taken the entry skills assessment, you will meet with an advisor in Student Affairs to discuss your program of study and to schedule your fall classes. If you sign up for at least six load hours you are eligible to enroll in SAIL. You can pick up a SAIL application form at the Dorchester Building Advising Center (D106) or the information desk. Simply fill out the form and return it c/o Jacki McArdle in Student Affairs to enroll in the program. Your application must be received by the second week of your first fall semester to be eligible for the SAIL program.
