Why prepare?
The evidence is overwhelming that preparation
for these standardized examinations significantly
improves performance.
Why take the University of Oregon's
workshops?
The University of Oregon has been providing
workshops for graduate admissions tests for
over twelve years. Such diverse groups as the
College Entrance Examination Board, the
Graduate Record Examination Board, and the
Oregon State Bar have recognized the high
quality of the University's program. In short,
the workshops are the best available.
The University's workshops cost so much less
than commercial programs; are they as good?
Our workshops are a complement to our
academic mission and reflect a commitment to
providing the very best at the lowest possible
cost. Our priority is not to seek a profit; it is to
provide a service. We invite students to inquire
about our nationally recognized programs.
