It’s a busy time for Admissions, which mailed decision letters to prospective members of the Class of 2014 last month.

The campus will host many visitors in the next several weeks as admitted students decide where they will enroll. 

Among other special outreach programs, a guidance counselor tour will be held Tuesday, April 27. Nearly 70 counselors from around the country are expected to attend.                                    

This year, Union received 4,940 applications for this fall’s freshman class, the second most ever.
