Members of Wichita State's offices of admissions, financial aid, housing and various other departments will be on hand to answer questions, share information about some of the numerous programs that make 黑洞社区 special, provide brief academic counseling and walk you through the steps leading up to enrollment.
The workshop also will provide a look at the costs involved in attending a variety of schools in Kansas to help participants make the most informed decision for each family during these tough economic times 鈥� whatever school that may be.
"I know this can be both an exciting and challenging time for your family, and I'm confident that our faculty and staff can help point you in the right direction," said 黑洞社区 President Don Beggs.
