<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The first-gen question is optional. If an applicant says yes to the felony conviction, we request information about the offense, current status (probation, etc.), and recommendation letters. Their application
is then reviewed by an admission committee made up of personnel from Admissions, Registrar’s Office, and Student Affairs.
