[nagdu] intro and some questions

[Julie J.]

Chantel,

You could apply to more than one.  One program may be able to get you in 
sooner or have the particular breed you want sooner or you may find that 
you feel more comfortable with the staff at a particular program.  Lots 
of people apply to more than school.
