Last week was an exciting one in the Office of
Admission. We welcomed over 450 families to our campus and were so happy to
show them all Hofstra has to offer. The week started out on the chilly side with
some snowfall on Presidents Day. However, a little snow didn’t stop us from
having a great time! Before we broke out into tour groups, we sat
down and found out what our visitors wanted see from our campus and what they
were looking for in a college.
Our visitors who were seniors in high school
started with a student panel hosted by an admission counselor and faculty member
to answer questions about student life and what it’s like to be a Hofstra
student. Afterwards, they were taken on a walking tour of campus and saw all
the locations spoken about on the panel. Sophomores
and juniors went on tours with a Pride Guide and admission counselor to answer questions
about college life and programs at Hofstra. Students were also able
to hear about the application process and how a rigorous senior year will help
make them stand out from other applicants!
With our busiest week
behind us, we are pumped and ready for all of our upcoming events!
