Suffolk Hosts Open House Sunday April 6, 1 pm - 3 pm

Prospective and recently accepted students and their families will be welcomed by faculty, administrators and current students to Suffolk County Community College’s open house scheduled across all three of college’s campuses on Sunday April 6 from 1 pm to 3 pm.

College faculty and administrators will welcome visitors and offer detailed information about Suffolk’s more than 70 degree and 30 certificate programs and will be joined by admissions staff to help students and parents navigate the admissions process and answer questions and financial aid representatives will provide details about the grants and loans process, as well as the many academic scholarships available at Suffolk.

Veterans should note that campus representatives will be available to provide educational and transitional services information.

The Open House program at each campus will be important for recently-accepted students as well, and provide an opportunity to learn more about placement testing, academic advisement and financial aid.

"Suffolk County Community College has always been an exciting place to be," said College President Dr. Shaun L. McKay, "and we are undergoing exciting changes, including the building or opening of new buildings on all three of our campuses."

"Prospective Suffolk County Community College students and those accepted will discover that making a personal visit to a campus is critical to the college decision making process," said Joanne E. Braxton, Suffolk’s Dean of Enrollment Management.

"We look forward to having students and their families joining us to learn about our academic programs and student support services,” Braxton said, adding “they will also have the opportunity to tour the campus with student guides who will answer questions based upon their experiences as active students. Attending open house and applying early is the best way to secure admission to Suffolk County Community College," Braxton concluded.
