Greetings,

We would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to The Art Institute of Houston, and the city of Houston. The Art Institute of Houston has a long history in Houston and we are delighted that you have chosen to be a part of its future. Regardless of your educational and career preferences, let us assure you that all of us here at The Art Institute have a vested interest in your chosen endeavor.

The Art Institute offers many services designed to assist students, such as yourself, as you will see in this handbook. The information in this handbook provides an overview for your convenience and information for your success.

As you undertake the challenges of your education here at The Art Institute, you will find the demands will be great, but the rewards even greater. For many of you, that seemingly distant goal of graduating will be upon you much sooner than you imagine today. So, take every opportunity to enjoy the experience in front of you and get involved in student activities. Building a network of colleagues and friends today can only enhance your experiences in the future.

Our best advice to you is to attend class regularly, study hard, keep an open and inquisitive mind, enjoy your fellow classmates, allow adequate time for rest, and reserve time for your studies. Organize your time and apply yourself and we feel certain that you will succeed.

Congratulations and good luck on achieving your goals.

THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
