This April, more than 1,000 visitors will converge on Alfred
State College (ASC) during two events to see if becoming an Alfred State
Pioneer is the right fit for their families. The public is invited to check out
all the amazing things that Alfred State has to offer during a pair of Open
Houses scheduled for Saturday, April 4, and Sunday, April 19.
Open House Programs will begin at 8:30 a.m. in the Orvis
Activities Center on the Alfred campus. During these events, prospective
students and their families will be able to participate in a variety of sessions
to learn about ASC academic programs and life on campus. An extensive list of
activities is designed to provide flexibility in visiting areas of interest to
each student.
Alfred State Vice President for Enrollment Management Betsy
Penrose said, “We encourage students and their families to explore our 80
in-demand academic programs as well as the campus life side of the Alfred State
experience by joining us on either April 4 or April 19. Open House is also a
great chance for students who are undecided about a major to tour different
programs and learn more about the opportunities that exist within these
majors.”
Open House activities include:
-Both the Alfred and Wellsville campuses are open.
-Panel discussions and guided tours with current students
describing life at ASC.
-Faculty from all academic areas will provide tours of labs
and answer questions.
-Informative presentations on financial aid and campus life.
-Complimentary lunch for students and their families for a
taste of Alfred.
-Information tables with representatives available to answer
individual questions related to Admissions, Athletics, Student Life, Technology
Services, Financial Aid, the Student Success Center, and more.
Families interested in majors at the Wellsville campus will
begin their day in Alfred and travel to Wellsville beginning at 11 a.m.
Accepted students and their families will have the opportunity to celebrate at
the Accepted Student Celebration during the Open House and even address some
enrollment checklist items.
