\u201cIt\u2019s good,\u201d said Hailey Craine, a senior at Geneva High School near Cleveland. \u201cIt\u2019s definitely my number one.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The event gave future students, including transfer students, a firsthand look at what it is like to be a Wright State student<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI think there\u2019s a lot of energy that we are building here,\u201d said Connor Algren, associate director of admissions and campus visits. \u201cThat word is getting spread back out into the communities, and people are interested in what is going on at Wright State, and people are wanting to check it out for themselves.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Visitors toured campus, learned about academic programs, explored housing options and discovered the many resources available to help students succeed.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Students and families also received information about financial aid and scholarship opportunities, including the Wright Tuition Guarantee Program<\/a>, which locks in the same annual cost of tuition, housing and dining over a four-year college career for newly admitted, degree-seeking undergraduate students who are Ohio residents.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
