NOTE: An asterisk (*) in front of a
course number indicates that we have received more applications
than there are spaces in the course, and that a wait list has been
started for the course. A note regarding admission
decisions follows the schedule.

Admission Decisions
The application form for RBS courses
is available online. Admission to RBS courses is on a rolling basis. The first
round of admit decisions for each course is made three months before the
course begins, and admit letters put into the US post. Applications received
thereafter are processed immediately. RBS accepts applications until the
week in which the course runs, but chances of admission are greatly
increased if the application is received two weeks ahead of the initial
round of admit decisions. All applications are acknowledged upon
receipt.

Frequency of Course Offerings
Not all of the courses listed in the
RBS Course Bulletin will be offered this
year. Some courses are offered in alternate years, and on occasion RBS
faculty members may wish to take an informal sabbatical, and their courses
may disappear from the Schedule for a year or two as the
result.
In general, however, all RBS courses not offered
annually are on a two-year cycle, and courses missing from the Schedule
this year may be expected with some confidence to reappear in the Schedule next
year.
