The University of Mary Washington welcomes prospective students and their families to campus this fall for a series of open houses designed to offer a firsthand look at academic programs, student life and the admissions process.
Saturday sessions are scheduled for Sept. 27, Oct. 18 and Nov. 8. The free events are open to high school juniors and seniors, and transfer students. Seniors who have already applied can also register for an expedited review for an on-the-spot admission decision.
Each program includes guided tours, opportunities to speak with faculty and current students, and sessions on financial aid, academic offerings and extracurricular activities. Families can also explore the surrounding city of Fredericksburg, which features historic landmarks and tours, specialty shops and restaurants.
“Visiting campus is one of the most important steps in the college search,” said Dean of Admissions and Associate Vice President Melissa Yakabouski. “Open houses give students and families the chance to talk with faculty and current students, see the facilities and get a real sense of what it’s like to be part of the Mary Washington community.” Read more.
