Welcome GSCFM Students
Please print out each project and bring with you to Dartmouth. Please read and familiarize yourself with each group project before you arrive to and come prepared with your thoughts on each "check list" to see if any of the groups have any holes or gaps that could help ensure that a better credit department or decision are made.
If you have any questions, please contact Tracey Flaesch at (410) 740-5560, ext. 1029 or traceyf@nacm.org.
