With high school seniors reaching the end of their college decisions journey, the last milestone left is for them to finally confirm what college they will attend. As many of us probably experienced ourselves, this is not an easy decision to make. In an attempt to ease this decision for potential ducks, Stevens has planned various events throughout the month of April which serve as an opportunity for admitted students to get an insight onto Stevens and to see if Stevens is a good fit.
Occurring several times throughout the months of March and April, Admitted Students Fridays allow potential students and their families to connect with current students, faculty, and administrators at Stevens. This provides accepted students and their families a chance to get their questions answered about financial aid, admissions, and the next steps for enrollment. Student-led campus tours will also be provided which the incoming students can choose to participate in. All Admitted Students Fridays follow the same schedule so new students can elect to attend which one works best for them. For the remainder of the month, the Admitted Student Fridays are on:
- Friday April 21
- Friday April 28
The main event for accepted students is Admitted Students Weekend which will be occurring on Saturday April 15, 2023 and Sunday April 16, 2023. The agenda for this day includes a speech by President Nariman Farvardin, a meet and greet of the faculty and staff, campus tours, and the chance to learn more about student life on campus by speaking with student leaders of various different organizations at Stevens. At the end of each day, students and families are invited to enjoy various foods from different Hoboken restaurants known as the Taste of Hoboken.
Lastly, IntroDUCKtion programs will be taking place from July 10, 2023 to August 11, 2023. IntroDUCKtion features virtual programs, some of which are mandatory, which allows the incoming first year students to get additional information and guidance about navigating life at Stevens.
Aside from the IntroDUCKtion programs, the Stevens Career Center will be providing several introductory career development workshops throughout the summer. Incoming students can take advantage of this to learn more about the resources available to them that can aid them throughout their time at Stevens.
With all these events and activities, incoming ducks and their families can hopefully get a good insight on if Stevens is a good fit for them and if they elect to come here, their transition to the Stevens community will be seamless.
