Rescheduled Parent Coffee - December 5th at 8:45 am
AISC is excited to welcome a university representative sponsored by the U.S. State Department’s Office of Overseas Schools. Please join us for this discussion at our next parent coffee.
Adele Brumfield, the Associate Vice Chancellor of Enrollment Management at the University of California-San Diego (and previously of the University of Wisconsin-Madison) will join us for our December Parent Coffee. Adele has a wealth of expertise in the fields of U.S. college admissions and financial aid.

Please join us on Monday, December 5th at 8:45am in the BBT for this talk.
