We represent the Institute of International Education, India. IIE is partnering with NYU Abu Dhabi to reach out to exceptionally talented (intellectually and socially)students, be they studying in Schools following the IB, A level, ISC and/or the National Board Exam systems, in the region of South Asia, to inform them about NYU’s new portal campus at Abu Dhabi.
With the first class of 150 students beginning their undergraduate program in the fall of 2010, NYUAD is looking forward to their new cycle of applications and admissions. We believe that TAISI provides the right forum for us to interact with Heads of Schools, Counselors and Faculty members from Schools around India.
We would be grateful if you could send us some information on your organization and the Agenda for the Conference in Lavasa.
Thanking you
With best wishes

Dear Anu
I’ve been waiting to receive a response to my query about how the University of Bath can go about registering not only for Jeff Thompson and I to attend the TAISI conference in September, but also how we can request an exhibition stand so that we can promote the University of Bath postgraduate and undergraduate programmes while we’re with you in Lavasa.
Ideally we would have liked to have a slot on the programme too – but perhaps we’re too late for that now.
I see that the deadline for registration is fast approaching, so I’ll send in our completed registration forms anyway. The payment will follow as soon as possible thereafter.
Can you let me know please what we should do about having an exhibition stand, and what payment would need to be made in that connection?
With best wishes, and looking forward to seeing you in Lavasa
