I will need this number to register you for the workshop. You will not be able to register yourself.
Note to alternates: If you are an alternate with a number between 1-5, we encourage you to go ahead and get admitted to graduate school as the deadline is May 1. In past years, most of our drops occurred in May or June and we could not register our alternates as the May 1 graduate school deadline had passed. Note: The cost on admission to graduate school is not covered by our grant.
