Career Advising and Transition Services began as a pilot program in 2013.

Do you agree to a new non-opt-outable fee of $15 per term, including summer session, per student to support the 鈥淐areer Advising and Transition Services鈥�, beginning Fall 2016 and continuing to Spring 2019 (inclusive) at which time MACES will bring the fee back to the membership in a referendum to renew the fee?
