For Parents Only, 6:30 p.m., Thursday, Sept. 25
Prospective students and their families will have the opportunity to discover the benefits of attending Penn State New Kensington at two admissions events during the last week of September.
The fall open house at 9 a.m., Saturday, Sept. 20, gives visitors a chance to explore the University, meet with campus staff and faculty, and tour the campus with current students as hosts. Patty Brady, director of enrollment management, and the admissions staff will talk with high school, adult, and transfer students (and their parents) about the admission process and student-aid opportunities.
The open house is one of several programs planned this fall to acquaint prospective students with the campus and Penn State's wide variety of academic programs.
The "For Parents Only" program is set for 6:30 p.m., Thursday, Sept. 25, in the campus Conference Center. Geared toward parents of high school students, the workshop is a guide to the college admissions and the financial aid processes. It explores the procedures from the parents' perspective.

- Decisions, Decisions, Decisions: Where does your child fit in?
