Central Experience
Date and time: November 7 from 8:15am-1pm
To learn more: https://centralmethodist.edu/admissions/central-experience.html
Finding the right college requires more than just looking at a website. You need to be able to see yourself on campus.
Central Experience at Central Methodist University is your chance to do just that, with a full day of immersion into what life is like at our Fayette campus. On Saturday, November 7, you'll have the chance to talk to the same faculty that will be teaching your classes, meet and ask questions of current CMU students who you’ll share classes with, and learn about more than 40 clubs and student organizations that can help you get involved. At the end of the day, you can even help cheer on the Eagles football team as they take the field against William Woods. This is your chance to get a front-row seat to what your life at Central could be. It’s not just a tour, it’s an experience.
Sign up for Central Experience today and experience what it means to be an Eagle!
