Bluffton University participates in Virtual Family Night
MCUSA colleges and universities hosting Virtual Family Nights
Bluffton University admissions invites high school aged students and their families to participate in a Virtual Family Night.
Organized collectively by the Mennonite Church USA colleges and universities, these events are replacing the in-person visits admissions counselors typically make to Mennonite high schools during the fall.
However, all high school students are invited to take part in any of the sessions, whether they attend a Mennonite high school.
The virtual event will feature representatives from each of the five MCUSA colleges and universities—Bethel College, Bluffton University, Eastern Mennonite University, Goshen College and Hesston College.
Topics will include what sophomores, juniors and seniors should do at each stage of their high school career to be a strong applicant; financial aid information; and how to prepare for college visits. The representatives will also be available to speak privately with families afterward or to schedule a more in-depth visit.
Family Night evening session dates:
Sept. 30 Bethany Christian School (all are welcome)
Oct. 5 Dock Mennonite Academy (all are welcome)
Oct. 6 Lancaster Mennonite School (all are welcome)
Oct. 8 Eastern Mennonite High School (all are welcome)
Oct. 12 Central Christian, Kidron, Ohio (all are welcome)
Oct. 15 All are welcome
