Cost for the course is $450, which includes textbooks, practice tests and a practice disk. Registration deadline is April 13; late sign-up will result in a $15 fee. The course will be offered again in August and October.

The GRE Prep course will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6-9 p.m. for four consecutive weeks from March 23-April 15. The course is designed to increase familiarity with the various types of verbal, quantitative and analytical questions presented on the GRE computer-generated general test, required by most graduate programs for admission. Students will also learn test-taking strategies and work with test-simulation exercises. Cost for the course is $375, which includes study materials and a practice CD. Registration deadline is March 15; late sign-up will result in an additional $15 fee. The course will be offered again five more times throughout the year.
