Greetings! The Shoals Marine Laboratory of Cornell University/UNH is now accepting online applications! The deadline for students seeking financial aid is FEB. 15, 2008.
We offer hands-on field courses, transferable course credit and the means to fulfill major and/or graduation requirements in the summer. All SML information, including the online application, is at http://www.sml.cornell.edu. Our Course Selection Wizard: http://www.sml.cornell.edu/sml_students_wizard.html Some key points: * Open to US and international students * Current freshmen or sophomores should consider taking one of the introductory-level courses, FIELD MARINE SCIENCE and FIELD MARINE BIOLOGY/ECOLOGY. Advanced undergrads or graduate students may choose from among our many advanced courses - see: http://www.sml.cornell.edu/sml_students_creditcourses.html * Financial aid for credit courses is available. See: http://www.sml.cornell.edu/sml_students_feesandaid.html * SML now offers paid internships in Field Biology, Seabird Conservation, and Sustainable Engineering; see www.sml.cornell.edu/sml_students_internships.html. * We have a new internship we call Learn and Earn: http://www.sml.cornell.edu/sml_internworking.html. Before and/or after taking a course at Shoals this coming summer, consider WORKING on Appledore to complete your island experience! * SML is not a full-summer commitment: you can work, too (or you can earn a full semester's worth of credits, if you do spend the whole summer at SML: see Island Semester http://www.sml.cornell.edu/sml_students_undergrad.html). Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions.
