What is CANDO?
CANDO is an optional month long activity in June where students can learn to be better prepared for the program this fall. I kind of see it as an internship. It's during the month of June (5-28) Tu-Th, and in the end the participants receive a stipend of $250. However, they only choose 7 students each from UT, TWU, and PV and are chosen from certain criteria such as financial need, minorities, first generation college student, etc.

Thank You. Now I remember getting a letter about that. Thanks for refreshing my memory. It sounds interesting; however, I'll be in a class at that time. I hope you enjoy it.
hope they do!

I guess not everyone got letters about FOCUS? I did get a letter about CANDO, but I don't remember getting anything about FOCUS. Kim, when did you get your letter about FOCUS? Also, has anyone heard anything from the school about important dates, orientation etc?

I would think everyone would get a letter about FOCUS because attached to it was another letter about important dates.
It said that registration packets would be sent out early july with registration being mid july and a mandatory orientation the friday before school starts.
hmm i haven't gotten a list of important dates either... so i guess this FOCUS paper went out recently? hmm i'm kinda worried now! Has anyone else not gotten the letter? :uhoh21: :uhoh21:
Important Dates:
thanks

I haven't gotten the letter yet either. I think its because my final transcript has not yet arrived at UT houston. I did get a CANDO letter though.
