I am applying as a freshmen and I can’t seem to find part II of their online application. If it’s available, where (be specific) can I access it.

That’s it.

Thanks.

This is not a rhetorical question, just really curious why there would be two separate questions regarding ethnicity on all University Applications I’ve seen recently. The questions are in this order:

1. Are you of Hispanic or Latino origin?

2. What is your ethnicity?
-white
-black
-asian
..etc

I’m curious whether this is advantageous or disadvantageous toward Hispanics/Latinos. It just struck me as incredibly un-American.

I can’t speak for every country, but here in the U.S. people care way too much about race/ethnicity. Some universities like to say how diverse they are and show the statistics. Also there is that whole equal opportunity education thing so that may be part of it. I don’t know if it would be advantageous or not.

1. No I am not.

2. I am of mixed race/ethnicities.

I’m sure that’d be illegal under the Disability Discrimination act, but as I’m sure we all know, the Law and actual in practice occurences are two different worlds. So, does anybody know in reality?

Are they asking you? Don’t volunteer information if they aren’t asking. That said, once accepted, you can request additional time to complete tests due to your OCD. I have OCD and I graduated from a well respected college, albeit with much difficulty. Don’t be afraid to ask for the additional test time if you need it. You will need a letter from your psych doc.

Good Luck!

So, I haven’t taken the SAT yet and the next one is in October, and I just found out from my friend that college applications are due in October. So, I really don’t know what to do. Is it possible for me to get into a university or is it too late? What can I do? Is there anything I can do? Also, if there isn’t anything I can do about the situation this year and I end up going to a community college, is it possible for me to get into a university college in the next year?

Most colleges would want you to turn in your application on time. Never turn in an application late, because it will definitely decrease your chances of being accepted. Just write on your college application that you are taking the test in October, and have your scores sent directly to that University. If you using the Common Application in the section to list your test scores it says date taken or date to be taken. The only downside to that is that if you do badly on that test there is no second chance.I don’t know what college you are applying to but most application deadlines are actually in December or January. All of the schools I applied to would even let me take the test as late as February. Check on your schools website to see their policy or just call the admissions office and ask. You can definitely get into a college and turn in your applications on time! Good luck!

Well, if you are an active member of Mensa, you can tell the college what you have done with the organization. They will value it if you do so. You can also take advantage of your membership and ask for letters of recommendation of other Mensa member that you know. If you only state that you are a member of Mensa they are not going to care a lot.

University applications?

Author: admin

I hear you have to apply early, but what exactly is applying? What information is needed? I won’t even be done grade 12 so how will they know to accept me or not?
shannon im in grade 11 lol… im just planning ahead

You apply for college your senior year. It doesn’t matter if you haven’t graduated because it’s assumed if you’re thinking about college, you’re graduating high school or getting a GED.

You get an application and fill out what they ask of you. You can either get a paper application or do one online. You have to take either the SAT or the ACT and that test will determine, or help to, whether or not you get accepted into University and what kind of financial aid you get. They also decide on your GPA, extra cirricular activities and a personal essay on whatever topic they tell you.

I’m surprised no one’s told this already and you’re a senior in high school. That’s very strange. I suggest you talk to your guidance counselor.

The question is quite self-explinatory… I’m in the 10th grade and I’m doing the Igsce course… My exams are going on and I wanted to know whether these marks will affect my Uni Apps… Or are the 11th and 12th grade more important?

Dont know which eduaction system you’re in.. but im from NSW Australia.
And year 10 meant nothing. If your going to year 11 and 12 it seriously means jack shit. You can fail it and still wont matter.
And same goes for year 11. I failed 2 subjects but in year 12 it’s completely wiped clean. Universitys only look at your year 12 score
Well at least thats what it is in aust

Part and parcel of network security, be it in a corporation LAN or school University, is the installation of a firewall or web content filter. However as any user will attest to, this can hamper the flow of work, as it restricts access to websites that actually have bearing on their activity.

Proxy Servers

One can go to the administrator and have the web content filter removed temporarily, but to have to go through this procedure over and over will be tedious. A far more convenient method is to use proxies on proxy servers.

Proxy servers, or websites, allow a user to overcome the website blockade. The process itself is not difficult to comprehend: what goes on is that once you are on a proxy server or site, you enter the address or URL of the blocked site. The site will be displayed in a separate window, and you will be able to access it as you would any normal web page.

Not only do you overcome the web content filter, but your IP address is hidden so that the website you are visiting will not be able to tell who is visiting it. The reason is that it is the proxy server’s IP that will be displayed, and not your computer’s.

Advantages of Using Proxy Servers

Aside from circumventing content filter applications, the proxy server has other benefits, one of them is that because the page being accessed does not directly interact with your computer or the network, there is less danger of having the security breached.

Another advantage is that by accessing the web page from a proxy server, the pages are cached on the proxy site. This is important because it makes retrieval of the page much quicker; instead of reloading a page, which can take time if the network or Internet is busy, the file is loaded from the cache instead.

Proxy Lists

This is very convenient for Web users, but unfortunately, due to its popularity, proxy servers can be difficult to access at times, and there will be some webmasters who will try to block proxy servers. The way to go around this is by going to a proxy list site.

There are several proxy list sites available, but the good ones should be regularly maintained; that is, the contents are updated on a consistent basis. In addition, the contents of the proxy list should also include proxy software, links to other sites, and other vital information.

Setting up a DMZ

As has been shown, there will be times when using proxy servers will be necessary. If you have a firewall, there is no need to disable it just so you can use a proxy. Instead, you can configure the firewall so that there will be a DMZ (demilitarized zone). This term is used to refer to that section of the network system that is not covered by the firewall.

There are several ways that you can configure a DMZ on a network. One of the easiest is to select one of the computers and use it as a go between a firewall and the Internet. It usually entails using a directory on the computer as a DMZ. Check the firewall manual for instructions. Once this is setup, you can use a proxy server, and access all websites, while keeping up your security.
