STARKVILLE, Miss.—Prospective Bulldogs and their families can sample life at Mississippi State through a variety of recruiting events this fall.
Beginning Aug. 25, prospective students can register for the university’s annual , where high school seniors and other first-time college students learn about academics, campus life and the ÌÀÍ·Ìõ community. Preview Days are scheduled for Oct. 12 and Nov. 9 and 23, while Transfer Preview Day for current college students is set for Oct. 23.
Specific Fall and Transfer Preview Days highlights include the opportunity to talk with faculty and staff about ÌÀÍ·Ìõ programs and courses, hear from current students about their experiences in a variety of Bulldog communities and take a walking tour to popular campus locations.
ÌÀÍ·Ìõ will also host Scholar Recognition Day on Oct. 19 and 26 and Nov. 2 for high school seniors who achieved an ACT score of 30 or above, or SAT equivalent. In these invitation-only events, participants will take a deeper look at the university’s Judy and Bobby Shackouls Honors College.
