Calling all high school juniors and seniors, and all college transfer students! Come explore the University of Mary Washington at Access UMW, a diversity-focused open house, on Saturday, Nov. 12.
Access UMW will include many elements of our traditional open house programs: an academic and student showcase, tours of campus, and an overview of the admissions and financial aid processes. The event will also feature unique aspects like a session titled Diversity and Inclusion in Action at Mary Wash, access to the James Farmer Multicultural Center and a showcase of culturally based student clubs and organizations. Beginning in the University Center, the Open House will take place on the University’s Fredericksburg campus from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. A tentative agenda for the day is available at http://bit.ly/2f5zhSd.
