Transfer and Veteran Open House 2024

Our Open House on October 25 provides participants the chance to hear from admission and financial aid staff, experience a class, and connect with current students and faculty. It is open to all prospective transfer and veteran applicants, as well as the counselors, faculty and staff who support them. The Open House will take place on campus, but we will broadcast select sessions over Zoom for those that cannot join us in person.

Participants interested in coming to campus can register here. If you'd like to join us virtually, please register here

We look forward to meeting you on October 25! Feel free to contact Dean Mendes at [email protected] with any questions.
