Which universities have the program I am interested in? Where will I feel most at home? It鈥檚 enough to make any student鈥檚 head spin.

At last year鈥檚 Open House, just over 1,800 high school students from across the region and beyond were welcomed on campus to explore and learn about AV俱乐部.
鈥淚 love the energy of Open House,鈥� says Christine Wilson, who works in the Registrar鈥檚 Office and is coordinating the 2015 event. 鈥淚t鈥檚 a chance for students to connect across campus and discover if AV俱乐部 is a good fit for them."
At this year鈥檚 Open House, students will have the opportunity to attend an academic program fair, a student clubs and society fair, a student services fair, and engaging sessions hosted by academic and student service units, as well as tour the campus and residences. The structure for Open House is flexible, and students and their families get to pick and choose which events they attend during the day.
One of the most popular services at Open House is on-site admissions: students can submit their application and meet with an assistant registrar to discuss admission. Last year, just under 450 students elected to apply for admission on-site.
Open House is run by student and staff volunteers and the Registrar鈥檚 Office, which provides ample opportunity for guests to meet current students.
It鈥檚 sure to be an exciting event that will give students an excellent opportunity to discover AV俱乐部.
