ADDITIONAL SCHOOL COMMENTS
Please note this is a one year programme, so internships are not applicable and scholarship and employment/career data all apply to one year.
The careers and employment data applies to 2001-2002 class. The class that started in 2002 does not complete the programme until September 2003, and therefore many are still completing their job search. The school has defined on campus recruiters as those who came on campus and make jobs offers which were accepted. Data on companies recruiting via job boards is for those who made and had job offers accepted which we know about. 10% of the school's graduates have offered no career destination information. The date of graduation is Oct. 1, 2002.
