CONNECT (New Student Orientation) September 10, 2005
One of the best things about starting a new program is meeting new people. In order to give you a chance to meet and network with your new classmates before school starts, please mark your calendars for Saturday, September 10 from 9:00 am - 3:00 pm. You will have a chance to learn more about SCU's MBA/MSIS program and meet some of the faculty and staff.

Again, congratulations on your acceptance into Santa Clara University's MBA/MSIS program and we look forward to seeing you at Quick Start and Connect.
