Portland, Ore. – Future students and their families will get a taste of Christian college life at Warner Pacific University (WPU) during its Admitted Student Day slated for Saturday, June 24th, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Located on the green hillside of Mt. Tabor Park in the heart of Southeast Portland, the campus event includes a full day of activities to welcome new Knights and assist with the enrollment and registration process for the coming academic year.
This year’s theme is “Passport to Your Future” where students will receive a passport-inspired welcome packet and earn a stamp for each activity they complete throughout the day. This includes visits to various areas on campus, information about majors and extracurricular activities, Knights championship athletics, paying for college, meeting professors and building relationships with future classmates. A centerpiece of the day is a personal appointment with an advisor to chart future class strategy toward a degree. Full breakfast and lunch will be served by WPU’s on-campus and award-winning food service team and prizes will be awarded throughout the day.
“I am looking forward to Admitted Student Day because it provides a great opportunity to meet all of the students I have been working with over the past few months,” said Admissions Counselor, Christina George. “College is a huge life step, and the admissions team at WPU is eager to walk alongside families in the enrollment process. We want our students to experience the love and care our Christ-centered university provides to every single student we serve.”
Though the event will be offered specifically for students who have been accepted to WPU’s class of 2027, all prospective students are invited to register online. For more information, please email admissions@warnerpacific.edu.
