Coming for a Super Visit?

Hi again! Have YOU had a chance to visit Binghamton yet? If not, you should definitely book a tour! First, our fabulous admissions counselors will treat you to some basic statistics and information about BU. They’ll help you learn more about the academic and extra-curricular programs we’ve got to offer, and they’ll provide some insight into the types of students that attend good old Bing-o. The admissions counselors are a great resource for prospective students: many of them have received degrees from Binghamton, and all of them can help you with the application process. Each admissions counselor works with a specific region of the state, country, or world and reviews applications from that area. Get to know your admissions counselor! Send an e-mail or arrange an appointment: they can help you figure out if Binghamton is the right fit for you. After the information session, you’ll go out on a walking tour with the amazingly wonderful, ridiculously good-looking tour guides. (I’m a little biased-- I am one!) We’ll show you the sights: you’ll see many of the academic buildings and some of the libraries, make several stops in the University Union, and visit a dining hall and (everyone’s favorite!) a residence hall! If you’d like, we can also direct you to the Gyms, the Events Center, or the gigantic Nature Preserve. You’ll get a student’s perspective on the university and learn more about daily life in Vestal, NY (Fast Fact: The school is actually located in Vestal, not Binghamton). Plus, we’ve got the best stories and jokes around! I promise… When you visit, you’ll also recieve a coupon for student pricing in the dining halls and for a discount in the bookstore! Our second Super Visit Weekend for Fall 2009 is this weekend, November 14th through Nov. 15th! Of course, you’ll get a great visit whenever you’re able to make the trip, but, this weekend is especially packed with tours, information, and activities for high school students and their families. In addition to the general tours, there are special tours geared towards students who are particularly interested in the Thomas J. Watson School of Engineering & Applied Science or the Decker School of Nursing and towards those students looking to transfer to Binghamton on Saturday the 14th. Come see what we’re all about!
