Discover Columbus State Week: live virtual visits for students and parents

Campus News | Thursday, May 7, 2020

With the coronavirus pandemic preventing on-campus visits for potential students, Columbus State is thinking outside the box by bringing the campus to students. During the week of May 11-15, live interactive webinars will be offered on many aspects of higher education as part of the inaugural Discover Columbus State Week.

More than a simple presentation, the live sessions will include question-and-answer opportunities for students and parents. No matter where they are in their educational journey, they will have a front-row seat to discover the benefits of a cost-effective Columbus State education.

Sessions are scheduled from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. and again at 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. College leaders, faculty, staff, and students will host the live webinars. A sample:
