Dear Friends at SFFM,
Thank you so much to Sherri Maurin for being an exhibitor at Friends' General Conference in Colorado on behalf of Quaker-informed World University and School this past week.
Together we made a new, first, outreach video for prospective World University and School students (11th and 12th graders) applying this autumn to matriculate in the autumn of 2014 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTzo7MFhJqk - and which you'll also find here, along with a flyer.
This is an historic opportunity for students interested in free, online, MIT OCW-centric, university degrees, at World University and School.
Here are the Admissions' page at WUaS as well as related, upcoming, degree-program links on the Admissions' page at WUaS:
