Admissions Committee
An Admissions Committee of faculty members, in cooperation with the UNB Admissions Office, will review the applications. In admitting students, the Admissions Committee will strive to assemble a diverse cohort of highly capable learners and match the student to the program by determining what the College can contribute to the individual, what the individual can contribute to the College, and what the individuals can contribute to each other.
