FINANCIAL AID BULLETIN The Financial Aid Office has seen a 40% increase in applications for student aid this fall. Because we are having trouble keeping up with the volume of applications, we will be closing the office one morning per week in order that we can devote that time solely to processing assistance applications. Our new hours are as follows: Mon., Tues., Wed., Fri 0830 - 1630 Thurs. 1300 - 1630 Student Services Clerks in the Counselling Centre will be available to take messages and answer quick questions for Financial Aid during those times that the office is closed. In addition we will be open one evening per week which will vary so that we can accomodate students who have regular evening classes. The Financial Aid Officer is also available, by appointment only, on the Winslow Campus on Wednesdays. For information on evening appointments, or to book appointments, call 521-4851, local 282, Julie Steele REGISTRATION — STAFF ORIENTATION At the request of numerous staff members, Marian Exmann and Gerry DellaMattia are in the process of developing an orientation program for staff who are needed to work at registration.
