Campus Visitation Day Is Nov. 4

A Campus Visitation Day is planned for Saturday, Nov. 4, for high school students and their families and adults who are deciding where to continue their education.

"We strongly encourage those of all ages who are considering Fairmont State to attend our program. Campus Visitation Day is a good opportunity to get to know us," said Steve Leadman, Director of Admissions and Recruiting.

"Fairmont State University, including Pierpont Community & Technical College, provides more than 90 four-year programs, graduate programs, more than 50 two-year programs, certificates and skill set certificates to meet students' individual interests and needs. We want to help you find your future."

The event on Fairmont State's main campus will begin at 9 a.m. with registration and refreshments in the Falcon Center. FSU President Dan Bradley and Pierpont C&TC President Blair Montgomery will give a welcome. Those attending will have the opportunity to visit with faculty members and receive information on housing and financial aid. Tours of campus will be offered throughout the morning and afternoon. Current students and their parents will host discussion panels to answer the questions of prospective students and their families.

After lunch, all participants may tour the Robert C. Byrd National Aerospace Education Center in Bridgeport and/or the Gaston Caperton Center in Clarksburg.
