In addition, for seating purposes, we ask that each high school provide an overall number (including counselors, CDC's, students, and parents) attending the session.   
• Participating students must attend the orientation session on April 8, 2010.  During the orientation, students will be given specific information on enrollment and their field of study.  The orientation session will be held from 3:30-5:00 pm at the Health Sciences Campus in the Health Education Building (HEB) Student Lounge.
• Participating students will submit their completed registration documents (Wake Tech Application for Admissions & Dual Enrollment Forms) at the Orientation Session. Please provide your students with a copy of the "Student Directions" document in this packet for completing these forms.
