Open House

Published at November 3, 2009 in Applying, Parents, Special Events and Visiting Campus. 0 Comments

On Sunday, November 1st the Admissions Office hosted the annual campus wide Open House. Over 1200 visitors  got to tour our beautiful campus, meet with faculty members, learn more about our wonderful programs and talk with students support offices. It was a great day and a chance for us, the admissions office, to meet many prospective students. Thanks for visiting us! If you did not have a chance to attend Open House there are still plenty of opportunities to visit our campus. Just visit our website to see the tour dates and times. We look forward to meeting you!

The final countdown

I can’t believe it is the middle of March (although it still feels like the middle of January; as Kristin said  “where are you Spring?” I too am ready for flip flops) The campus is alive once again as all students returned from Spring Break on Sunday. I hope some of the students brought back warmth and sun! The admissions office has been busy cleaning up files, making decisions and preparing for another Admitted Student Day. My apologizes to all who went to sign up for an Admitted Student Day but found them to be all full. Please know that we make every effort to add as many people as we can to these programs without compromising space on campus. If you have not had a chance to visit campus, or you want to return to campus for a 2nd, 3rd, 4th.. time you still can sign up for one of our Senior only days. Our tours will run until the end of April and restart up in June. We can’t wait to meet you!

This time of year is full of excitement and energy and I like to refer to it as the “final countdown”. For us in admissions its nearing the end of reading season and starting Spring Travel.  For our seniors on campus it is the final countdown to finals and graduation (May 9). For our accepted seniors in high school it is the final countdown to graduation and moving in to the residence hall (August 19). Remember too that our accepted students only have a few weeks before the May 1st deadline. Be sure to get the deposit to our office by May 1st to confirm your spot in the class of 2013. It is a thrilling time for everyone! Its the end of chapter for some and the start of a new one for many. We are happy to be a part of it all! GO OWLS!!!!!!!

Owl update

It’s been very busy in the Owls Admissions office as of late. We are continuing to read applications and welcome visitors to campus via tours. Please continue to check your WebAdvisor account for updates on the status of your application. Also, be sure to sign up for a campus tour or class visit (if you would like to see our professors in action). This can all be done via our website; www.keene.edu/admissions. The campus will be busy the next two weeks, February break, welcoming visitors to campus for tours and overviews. We are very excited to meet all of you!

For students who have been accepted, remember to sign up for an Admitted Student Day program. Don’t forget you have until May 1st to deposit to Keene State. Also, in the last staff meeting I learned that no Financial Aid packages have gone out YET. So don’t worry if you have applied for Financial Aid and have not heard anything. Packages will be coming.

We hope to see you on campus soon!
