Saturday delivered a stunningly gorgeous autumn day, and the Penn College campus was buzzing with excitement. An Open House, Athletics events and a Fall Fair took advantage of the warm, sunny weather.
"Despite the heat, it was a wonderful day,” enthused Bryce W. Winder, coordinator of admissions events and communications, describing Saturday’s Open House at Pennsylvania College of Technology. “Our guests were amazing and brought the energy to campus." Winder reports that about 400 students and 1,200 guests were in attendance on the ultra-hot summer day. Their reward for braving the heat was the opportunity to view a lot of “cool stuff."
Over 1,300 visitors strolled around Pennsylvania College of Technology's campus on Sunday, taking in the sights and celebrations of Accepted Student Day. Rolling out a figurative “Wildcat blue carpet welcome,” faculty and staff greeted and guided 477 accepted students and their eager supporters.
Penn College's first "summer" Open House brought 126 prospective students to campus on Friday, 14 of whom traveled from out-of-state (Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York). The majority are considering a Fall 2024 start or later; the remainder are looking at Fall 2023.
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.
