Admissions Hosts 1st Open House of the Season

Saturday, Sept. 27, 2014, the University of Mary Washington will host an Admissions Open House. About 278 prospective students (typically transfers and high school seniors, juniors, and sophomores) and their families will visit campus between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. for this event. Estimated guest count is 790 visitors.

Visitor parking has been reserved in the parking deck off of Route 1. Primary event locations are the Anderson Center, Lee Hall, Seacobeck Dining Hall, Monroe Hall, and campus/residence hall tours in Randolph. Expect to see increased foot traffic on campus (especially between noon and 3 p.m.) and curious newcomers in the dining facilities.

Faculty will be involved in the Academic Showcase (9 a.m., Anderson Center) and Academic Spotlights (various locations, 11 a.m.) Thank you to all UMW partners who will spend part of their Saturday highlighting our community.

If you’d like to be involved in Open Houses or have ideas, please contact Admissions at 540.654.2000 or email admit@umw.edu.

While the Office of Admissions sponsors these events, the entire campus assumes the role of host. You represent our brand, our mission, and our sense of the UMW family. One way to show your support is to tweet to @UMWAdmissions and/or post to Instagram and tag @UMWAdmissions. We would like to see #UMWOpenHouse trending throughout the day.
