EAST GREENSBORO, N.C. (April 15, 2020) – The Office of Undergraduate Admissions at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University has made several innovative changes to accommodate current and prospective students.
With the threat of COVID-19 looming over the nation and N.C. A&T operating within social distancing protocol, the university is now hosting virtual campus tours, open houses and implemented a new chat feature to answer general questions.
“We are committed to offering a virtual event that will equip prospective students with the necessary tools and resources available for their academic endeavors,” said Jameia Tennie, director of undergraduate admissions. “This experience gives everyone a chance to not only receive information, but it also allows us to still interact and showcase what Aggieland is all about.”
The hour-long tour provides an ‘Aggieland Online’ experience for prospective students to learn what the university has to offer through a presentation highlighting academic programs, campus life, athletics, admissions and financial aid information. Students will also be able to view N.C. A&T’s campus virtually and have a chance to speak with Aggie Ambassadors.
Additionally, the office has converted its upcoming transfer open house on June 3, 2020, to a fully virtual event. Attendees can register online.
As prospective students research enrollment options, the office offers real-time question and answer sessions through the new chat feature.
Tours are available every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. More information is available via the Admissions Campus Tour Calendar.
