Coming Events for Charlottesville ADP
Information Sessions/ Orientations/
The Charlottesville ADP Center offers regular Information Sessions, explaining and describing its program, throughout the academic year. The Charlottesville Center also offers three Orientations each academic year, as well as participating in local College Fairs and hosting events for ADP students and alumni.
Information Sessions - Spring 2007
To learn more about the Adult Degree Program, come to one of our regular information sessions, held monthly at PVCC. The small, informal sessions generally last about an hour and a quarter. We talk about college degree requirements and how your previous learning may apply to them, and we discuss ADP study options, costs, and financial aid opportunities. Students who would prefer an individualized session are encouraged to contact the ADP Office to schedule a meeting with one of our advisors.
Our information sessions through Spring 2007 are listed below. For a schedule of upcoming sessions, you may also contact the MBC at PVCC Office by email or at 434-961-5422, or come to Room 300 above the PVCC Admissions Office. We strongly recommend attending one of these sessions or that you schedule an individual appointment with an advisor if you are interested in enrolling in theAdult Degree Program.
