Need Faculty/Staff to Advertise GRE, LSAT, GMAT Prep

If you know of students who will be applying this fall to graduate school, law school or MBA programs please encourage them to enroll in the Prep course offered through URGO and Augsburg's MBA Program at cheap, cheap, cheap rates. Many students fail to see the ubiquitous, neon-colored signs or A-mail messages. Others don't know that the exams are necessary for their next step in education. You know the students who are or should be considering post-bacc education, so send them our way.

Thanks,
Dixie
