>>>NOTE<<<

The deadline for the application to be complete is December 15;
however, since this notification is coming out so late we will allow the
following exception:

- If the SLIS application, vita/resume, writing sample, and personal
statement have been received at SLIS by December 15, and

- If the graduate school application process is started to the point
where everything (transcripts, GRE scores, etc.) has been requested to
be sent to UNT by December 15,

- Then, we will grant an extension to the deadline.  Everything for the
application process must be requested by December 15, but we will allow
until January 14, 2005 for everything to be received at UNT.  Since
there is a break at most colleges and universities during this time, it
is imperative that the process be well under way by December 15 to meet
the extended deadline.

If there are any questions about the program, please contact the
Program/Project Coordinator, Michael Pullin, at mpullin@unt.edu.

If there are any questions about the application process, please
contact the IS PhD Coordinator, Jurhee Curtis, at jcurtis@unt.edu.
