Events at Columbus State University

Columbus State University has two outstanding events coming up on campus that are specifically geared towards high ability students who are looking for a collegiate home.  We would love for you to encourage your top seniors to participate in either or both of these experiential days geared towards top high school students.
The first event is The Honors Experience on the afternoon of Friday, October 18th hosted by the Columbus State University Honors Program.  This event will allow your high achieving students to sample the Honors Program at Columbus State by meeting professors, talking with current Honors students, and auditing an honors seminar.  Other events include a laser show at the Coca-Cola Space Science Center, tickets to our theater production of Almost, Maine, or cheering on the CSU Cougars soccer and volleyball teams.
The second event is the Office of Admissions and Recruitment Senior Discovery Day being held onSaturday, October 19th.  The Senior Discovery Day will provide a comprehensive overview of the entire university and will allow honors students to further explore their specific academic interest as well as learn more about student engagement at CSU.
