The Admissions Office observed National College Decision Day on Monday, celebrating high school students as they choose which campus has earned their commitment. May 1 is also Pennsylvania College of Technology's intent-to-enroll deadline for new and transfer students who were accepted prior to April 1.

A festive atmosphere prevailed in the office, which invited the campus community to stop by for photos, tasty goodies and music. There was also the opportunity to write notecards to future Wildcats, telling them what is so special about attending Penn College.
