- Wear comfortable clothes. There's no need to wear your fanciest clothes.
- Relax and be yourself. We want to get to know Who YOU ARE just as much as you want to see who we are.
In the Admissions Office:
- When you arrive, let us know if you need anything - water, coffee - whatever.
- Don't be nervous. We're honored that you are here. Make yourself at home!
During your tour:
- Our Student Ambassadors will be showing you around. Be sure to keep up with them but try not to get ahead of them. Also, if they need to speak up, don't be afraid to tell them.
- Tell the Ambassador your area of interest - they will be sure to point it out to you.
- Ask questions!
