ASU to hold Annual Spring Connection Day this weekend | Events

It’s time to connect! Alabama State University’s Office of Admissions and Recruitment will host its annual Spring Connection Day on Saturday, Feb. 2, beginning at 7:30 a.m.

The event is an excellent opportunity for high school students and college transfer students to take a closer look at ASU. Parents also are encouraged to attend.

During Connection Day, prospective students can:

• Tour ASU’s beautiful campus
• Discuss your academic interests
• Complete an admission application and learn more about financial aid, housing and orientation
• Learn how to choose a college major
• Find out about ASU clubs and organizations (academic and professional, honors and leadership, social, political, service and religious)
• Join old friends and make new ones as you get your first taste of that "Ole ‘Bama State Spirit" during the Arkansas Pine-Bluff University vs. ASU women’s and men’s basketball games at the Dunn-Oliver Acadome (free admission for Connection Day participants).

For more information, contact ASU's Office of Admissions and Recruitment at 1-800-253-5037.
