[civsa] listserv Digest, Vol 76, Issue 8 - Summer Open Houses

We host 3 summer "snapshots" on 2 weekdays (10 am to 1 pm in July and 10 am to 1 pm/1 pm to 4 pm on one day in August) and have been for about the last 10 years.  They are meant to be short programs that orient families quickly to the campus and our offerings.  Our Agenda is as follows:

10:00 AM			Check - in and Breakfast
10:30 AM			Undergraduate Admission and Financial Aid Presentation
10:30 AM			Transfer Admission and Financial Aid Presentation
11:10 AM			Student Guided Tour of Campus (only the one side of campus and includes Freshman Residence Hall)
12:00 PM			Academic and Activities Fair  (tables set up in our Athletic/Recreation Center) - well attended by our colleges/departments and 					organizations so families can walk around and speak to several representatives based upon their questions.
				
Between the 3 programs we usually have about 410 rising senior families visiting (we do get underclassmen and some transfers) of which 57% apply and ultimately 19% enroll.  This compares to 3 Fall Weekend Open Houses (running 8:30 am to 2pm) where we usually have 570 families that attend with 57% applying and 75% enrolling.

As we do not have a Large Spring Rising Senior Open House, these are becoming more popular and a great way to encourage students to return for a more in-depth look in either Fall or during the Spring Accepted Student Days.

Any questions, please let me know.  More than happy to share!

Hi All,

Does anyone host Instant Decision Days at their institution?  Could you give me an idea of your schedule and successes?

Thanks,
Paula

Do any of you host prospective student open house events during the summer? If so, I would be interested in learning more about how your numbers compare to Fall/Spring open house events, and would love to see any sample agendas. Thanks in advance!
