项目概述

Every UNH and UNHM student is required to meet with the UNH Liaison to 华盛顿中心, prior to applying and after acceptance.  另外, every applicant is assigned a TWC Pre-Arrival Advisor, who can answer specific questions about the application process, 实习匹配, 住房, 以及其他话题.

Academic departments may allow students to count part of the TWC experience as major or minor requirements.  Students are encouraged to work directly with their academic advisor in those departments to determine if this is possible.
