Dear Madam/Sir,
I’m a dental PhD student at MCG. I’m very interested in your new medical Spanish course and I wish to take it this Spring. Is there a way to enroll for the class now that I have passed the deadline? Is my MCG student status helpful? Finally, if there is no way to join your class, can I audit it or join as a continuing education student. Thank you.
