PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, JULY 22, 1986
PAGE 9
I am including in this report a section which will give all of you some
up-to-date information concerning Ambassador College.
You will notice
that even though we have received about 530 completed college
applications, we have only accepted about 119. We may accept a few more,
but do not anticipate accepting many more because of limited dormitory
space.
(As you know, in recent years we have cut down the size of the
freshman class at Pasadena iri order to fill those bed spaces with more of
the two-year graduates--those who have completed either their A.S. or
A.A. degrees--from Big Sandy and Pasadena.)
The following information regarding A.C. will be of interest to all of
you:
