Campus Packed with Future Red Foxes During Admitted Student Weekend
4月9日, 2024 — The continued surge in interest in a Marist education was on full display over the past weekend as admitted students and their families packed campus for the first two Admitted Student Days. Prospective new Marist students experienced what may be their new home on the Hudson this fall, with hundreds more set to visit for the final Admitted Student Day on 4月13日星期六.
The morning kicked off in the McCann Arena with a welcome from President Kevin Weinman, Vice President for Enrollment 管理 Sean Kaylor, 校友Andrew Kayiira, Jr. '04, and honors student Krystyna Lubrano '24. Admitted students and their families then spread out across campus for a chance to experience a “day in the life” of a Marist student.
教师, 当前的学生, 工作人员, and alumni met with prospective students, discussing the unique mix of academic and student life experiences that Marist offers.
President Weinman stressed the major choice ahead for these students—where to spend the next four years:
“It's not just about preparing yourself for a lifetime of success, but also about getting the most out of your college experience, both inside and outside the classroom,温曼说. “I’m here to tell you that you’ve come to the right place! 在这里, 你会有一个全面的, 'all-in' learning experience that will challenge you and help you grow and develop as scholars, 专业人士, 和个人.”
"The number of students who are saying 'Yes, I'm ready to be a Red Fox' has been overwhelming, and we are very excited about the Class of 2028,肯特·莱因哈特说, 本科招生主任. "It's been great seeing prospective students and the welcoming Marist community and faculty who are going to help transform their lives."
敲钟!
整个周末, the sound of a bell echoed through the rotunda in the 美利学生中心 as the newest Red Foxes secured their spot for the fall semester. Prospective students made it official by ringing the bell, 拍照, and receiving their choice of Marist merchandise upon committing to join the next incoming class.
Those who rang the bell expressed excitement about officially becoming a Red Fox.
“I really love the location and being right along the water,” said Emma Reynolds '28. “Everyone I speak to here is just so nice, and I really love the environment. My favorite part is the people because everyone is so welcoming. Everyone I’ve spoken to today and the two other times I’ve been here have reassured me this is the place I want to be.”
“I’m so excited to be a Red Fox and to join the crew team,” said Brooke Dini '28. “我喜欢这个热情的社区. Everyone is so nice here, and I love the campus.”
