Tips For A Successful Open House Experience
- Arrive as close to when the event starts as possible (9am) – that way you have lots of time to fit everything in. Parking is free for the duration of the event.
- Think about what you want to know, what questions you have, what programs you are interested in at SLC – this is the day to get them all answered!
- Be open, our program experts will be on hand to answer your questions, but consider talking to representatives about programs you haven’t heard of – you never know!
- Wear comfortable shoes – you are going to do a lot of walking, including a full campus tour (residence too!). Please note our tours are also accessible.
- Think about some of the services you currently use in school or think about those you might need. All our support services will be available for next steps and questions (Financial Aid, Wellness & Accessibility etc.).
- If you haven’t already applied to SLC or accepted your offer, you can do that at Open House and we can help with questions along the way.
Graduate Certificates Information Sessions
Take your skills to the next level and learn about Graduate Certificate opportunities at SLC. Our graduate certificates offer a way to enhance your current skills or develop new skills to move into different areas of work by building on the education you already have. Sessions will be conducted by program faculty and are a perfect way for you to learn more and find out if this is the next step in your career. Our Recruitment team will be on site to help with any admissions and application questions as well.
