[Vision2020] Re: Reply to Wilson on NSA Accreditation

I agree, Melynda.

And being a private college, NSA can require that potential enrollees must have 
achieved a certain point level on each of the SAT and the ACT before they are 
even considered for registraiton.

If I opened a private school and required potential enrollees to have red hair, 
it would be safe to assume that my school wouild have the largest percentage of 
redheaded students.

I wonder what the enrollment requirements are at NISA (New and Improved St. 
Andrews).  Are you there, Joan or Carl?
