Student application: Students can submit applications through LA Campus. *Only returning LAs are eligible to be LAs during the summer since there is not a pedagogy seminar.
Matching period: Faculty select students to interview and match them to courses (LA Campus calls this "hiring" but we use that term for the HR process)
