Essay: Mae Jemison, the first black woman to travel in space, once said, “Never limit yourself because of others’ limited imagination; never limit others because of your own limited imagination.” Please explain your interpretation of this quote and why it is relevant.

Two Letters of Recommendation: One must be from a teacher and the other must be from a non-family member. These should be submitted with your essay in sealed envelopes.

Financial Aid Requests

Financial Aid is available on an individual need basis. FACTS Management provides a comprehensive service which handles all aspects of the financial aid application and verification.
