Take the first step to achieving your career goals by registering now for Lakehead University’s virtual open house, happening on Wednesday, Dec. 9. Explore Lakehead’s programs, chat virtually with faculty and staff about the admissions process, and have a chance to win free tuition for your first year.
There has never been an easier way for you and your family to learn more about Lakehead University – from the comfort of your home.
Through videos, downloadable program info packages, and one-on-one chats, you can learn about the University’s vibrant student life, its degree programs, scholarships and bursaries, and important admissions information.
New for the December event, attendees will have access to a virtual presentation hall, where they can hear first-hand experiences about student life and the Lakehead advantage from current Lakehead students.
“Our December virtual open house offers the opportunity to further explore our programs, chat with Faculty to better connect your personal career goals to our programs and discover our student supports,” said Lynn Hurrell, Director of Undergraduate Recruitment (Domestic).
“However, our December event explores a little deeper into the student experience awaiting at Lakehead. Through a series of 30-minute talks and Q&A sessions, attendees will hear firsthand about what it’s really like to be part of the Lakehead community, how small class sizes matter and why over 8,500 students per year continue to choose Lakehead to prepare them for their future,” Hurrell said.
By attending the open house, all participants will automatically be entered into a draw to win free first-year tuition. But don’t delay registering: pre-registration is required by 3 pm on Wednesday, Dec. 9.
The open house will feature a virtual exhibit hall where attendees will pick up a virtual backpack and visit with 21 different booths to collect brochures and faculty and program videos and most importantly, chat one-on-one with current faculty, researchers and student services teams.
Lakehead University has world-renowned faculty and researchers, which is why Maclean’s Magazine includes Lakehead in its annual top 10 list of undergraduate universities in Canada and Research Infosource named Lakehead the Research University of the Year for five consecutive years (2015 to 2019).
The Lakehead Experience: A Virtual Open House will run from 4 pm to 8 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 9. Pre-registration is required – please visit lakeheadu.ca/openhouse.
