Fall and Spring Open Houses

Every year, Edinboro University of Pennsylvania opens its doors to the public for a Fall and Spring Open House. Prospective students can tour the campus, speak with representatives from academic departments, walk inside our facilities including dining facilities and the residence halls, speak with representatives from Admissions, Financial Aid, Scheduling, and the list goes on. These Open Houses provide an opportunity for you and your family to explore the University and speak to the same people that assist current students every day.

This year, our Fall Open House was held on October 21, 2007 and it was an extremely successful event for everyone! Many students applied for admission “on the spot” while attending the Open House.

Information on the Spring 2008 Open House will be posted when available.

Representatives from Edinboro University will be visiting select cities such as Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Buffalo to present information about the University, answer questions, and assist in finalizing college plans.
