There's a national system for a reason -- kids don't have their fin aid offers, etc. from other schools until mid-April. People should not have to commit to attend Alabama in February in order to get an orientation spot that's consistent with other ALABAMA programs. We're not talking about a conflict with a family wedding.
That is EXACTLY what I was trying to say. Thank you.

And in this day and age - can't schedules be done remotely/online?
