[nagdu] Interviews

[Lyn Gwizdak]

Hi Kody,
I didn't have to get an interview as a returning student.  The returning 
students file a shorter application whereas you newbys or new to TSE have to 
do the long one that has stuff about your mobility, references, etc. 
Because I need a tall dog for balance, I waited about six months from 
putting my application in in May 2007 and getting a class date for October 
2007.  The times can vary because it all depends on if they have a correct 
match for you ready for placement.  If you can take anything - no special 
needs - the wait time can be shorter.
