Overview
Workshops/courses are usually offered 4 times per year--fall, winter, spring, summer--and cover some content, practice questions, test-taking strategies, and resources for individual study. Offered as a free support service (except Math General Curriculum) for Lesley students, current Lesley applicants, and Lesley alumni. The general public may register and attend for a fee.
Workshops and courses are held in University Hall, 1815 Mass Avenue, Cambridge, MA, near Porter Square. Public transportation is recommended (the Porter Square T station is just a block away); those able to find a parking space in the lot behind University Hall (off Roseland Street) will be eligible for a parking discount. Bring the parking sticker to the registration table and have it stamped (for workshops only--not the course). Meters along Mass Ave are free on Sundays.

Math General Curriculum
To help candidates prepare for the Math subtest of General Curriculum (GC), Lesley offers:
- Online Math Diagnostic, EDIAG 5000 is similar to the GC Math subtest, and results can help determine next steps for preparation. Diagnostic is a co-requisite for course and workshop. Lesley students and alum can register for and take the diagnostic at no charge without registering for the workshop or course. Lesley Students in Elementary, Moderate, or Severe programs are strongly advised to take the diagnostic during their first semester at Lesley in order to have enough time to prepare for
the subtest. - An intensive, 36 hour course, EMTEL 6600, open to Lesley students (and others as space permits); $375 Lesley affiliates; $475 General Public.
- A 4-session weekend workshop, EMTEL 5600, open to Lesley students, current applicants, alum and general public; $100 Lesley affiliates; $300 General Public.
