Student Application for Enrollment in ED 97 or 197

Please complete this form to let us know you plan to enroll in the ED 97/197 Field Studies course in Berkeley Schools.

Please read the current BSV Volunteer Contract and Ed 97/197 Course Syllabus to ensure you are able and willing to meet the requirements for both the course and volunteering in Berkeley schools.

What are my next steps after I complete the form?
