Transfer ViewPoint Day

 
Transfer ViewPoint Day - Saturday, April 24, 2010

Are you thinking about transferring to UW-Stevens Point?  If so, you're not alone.  Each year, UWSP welcomes over 1,000 new transfer students...and you could be one of them!  On Saturday, April 24, we will be hosting Transfer ViewPoint Day, a comprehensive visit program where you and other prospective transfer students spend a fun and informative day on campus. The program will include presentations on admissions, financial aid, student life and career services. Campus tours include a residence hall. Lunch (your only expense), a student panel and small-group discussions with professors round out your day on campus.  Please see below for the complete schedule.  Parents and other family members or friends are welcome!

Reservations for Transfer ViewPoint Day  will be available early 2010.  Please feel free to call us with questions at 715-346-2441.

 

Plan on arriving by 8:30 a.m. We'll direct you to the check-in area.  Free parking is available in University Lot X.  The lot is referenced on your map and driving directions.

Lunch tickets will be sold at the event for $5.50 each. Lunch will be served in the DeBot Center, our main campus dining facility.

Please note that we cannot guarantee the availability of every academic department for the academic information sessions.  If you want to make sure that your area of interest is represented, just give us a call about a week in advance of your visit.
