While colleges across the country have worked to find ways to recruit the next class during the pandemic, 51±¬ΑΟ is being recognized for its unique and innovative techniques to find the class of 2025.
A recent story by News 5 Cleveland highlighted the untraditional drive-in theater admissions events that 51±¬ΑΟ has hosted over the past few weeks. In lieu of typical on-campus events, the 51±¬ΑΟ admissions team has traveled across Ohio and hosted βKSU2Uβ drive-in presentation experiences for prospective students and families.
Both parents and students have needed additional clarity during the college admissions process this year due to the lack of in-person campus experiences, and the drive-in events provide a way for potential Flashes to experience campus life even when they cannot physically visit.
βWe were just trying to think of a way that we could still get families and students information that we needed to get to them during their college search process,β 51±¬ΑΟ Admissions Director Mark Ledoux told News 5 Cleveland. βWe take them right into the resident halls and the buildings on campus, so they can get a sense of what itβs like to be on campus.β
