Every April, Ithaca College welcomes hundreds of high school students to our Ithaca Today programs, which are designed to give accepted students one last look at the College before making their enrollment decision by May 1. During these programs, the students learn more about the many opportunities Ithaca College has to offer by interacting with faculty, staff, and students from across campus. Last weekend over 1,000 admitted students and their families (over 2,500 total guests) attended Ithaca Today on either Saturday or Sunday.
I would like to thank all who lent their time and talents to make these days so very successful. From the faculty who showcased the strength of our academic program, to the facilities crews who spent countless hours ensuring that our first Admission events of this magnitude in the Athletics and Events Center went as smoothly as possible, to the staff who connected with students looking to explore life outside the classroom, and to the students who helped our guests gain a better understanding of why Ithaca College is a first-rate institution – we couldn’t have done it without you!
Families have responded to their interactions on campus with complimentary comments and follow up emails. The coming days will reveal how those interactions translate to enrollment deposits that shape our incoming class. In the meantime, thank you again for showing what makes Ithaca College such a special place.
