College Day Visit

What is College Day?

The Center for Multicultural Affairs College Day is an opportunity for junior high school students and high schools throughout the country to visit Villanova and get the college application wheels turning. Counselors of junior high schools and high schools that are interested in the day event would have to complete and submit an application and contact the coordinator of the College Day Program to which they are applying. The day would typically consist of a student panel discussion, a tour of the University, lunch in one of the University's main Dining Halls and meeting some members of Administration at the University. The College Day Program for junior high schools is coordinated by Mrs. Linda Coleman, Associate Director, Affirmative Action and the College Day Program for high schools is coordinated by Charisma Presley, Assistant Director of Student Outreach and Diversity Programming in the Center for Multicultural Affairs.

The next College Day is: February 11, 2010 - for High School Juniors Only - 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Deadline to apply is Monday, February 1, 2009.

The weekend is coordinated by Charisma Presley, Assistant Director of Student Outreach and Diversity Programming and two student co-chairs. Students wanting to apply should complete and submit the application along with the School endorsement form by the deadline. Limited to four (4) students per school.
