Get Your Start at Suffolk: Open House April 10

Faculty, administrators and current students welcome prospective and admitted students to Suffolk County Community College’s open house scheduled across all three of college’s campuses on Sunday April 10 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.

College faculty and administrators will welcome visitors, 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. Financial aid representatives will be available to provide information about grants and loans, 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 and provide an opportunity to learn more about placement testing, academic advisement and financial aid.

“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.
