ENRICHMENT MINI-COURSES PROGRAM
Dear Parents: We are delighted that your child has chosen Carleton University for the Enrichment Mini-Courses Program (EMCP) 2016.
On Sunday, May 1, 2016 you are welcome to join us for the EMCP Orientation Day. This is an opportunity for you to meet the instructor/s and get oriented with our campus where your child will be attending EMCP class for the week. A typical orientation session will last for about an hour. In addition to meeting their instructor/s and classmates, your class will talk about the activities of the week, filed trips, etc. We anticipate close to 3000 people attending the orientation and so we have scheduled three sessions. For courses # 200-225 the session is at 1pm; for courses # 226-258 at 2pm. We request that you come and attend the scheduled time of your orientation.
If you are interested in a formal guided tour (45 minutes) of the campus before or after your class orientation, please register online at http://admissions.carleton.ca/enrichment-mini-courses-program-tours/. Only two sessions are offered, at 2 pm and at 3 pm.
We have enclosed the brochure outlining the program, along with the leaflet (Quick Guide to Carleton) which you can review in advance of the orientation. You and your students will report directly to your designated classroom on Sunday, May 1st (please refer to the map on the back of the brochure). Please read these brochures carefully and make sure to note the time of your orientation session.
You may be interested to know that four $1,000 scholarships are presented annually to former EMCP students. Each student who attends a mini-course at Carleton is eligible to apply and COULD QUALIFY for a $1,000 scholarship upon admission to a first year undergraduate program at Carleton University. For additional information on the EMCP scholarships or other details about the EMCP at Carleton University, visit http://www.carleton.ca/emcp/forms/. Please let us know if you have any questions, or need assistance. We look forward to meeting you on Sunday May 1, 2016. Sincerely, Nestor B.
