Northwestern Oklahoma State University’s annual Ranger Preview event for high school seniors will kick off Saturday, Nov. 16, at 9 a.m. in Percefull Fieldhouse on the Northwestern-Alva campus.
Any high school senior who attends Ranger Preview, is admitted to Northwestern as a full-time student at the Alva campus, and lives in Alva during the academic school year will receive a $600 scholarship.
“Ranger Preview is an excellent opportunity for seniors and their families to visit campus for a fun and informative event that showcases the numerous opportunities awaiting students at Northwestern,” Matt Adair, assistant dean of student affairs and recruitment, said. “We have tremendous involvement in this event from faculty, students and staff in welcoming our potential freshmen to campus. I would like to extend a special ‘thank you’ to Community Bank, Banc Central and Alva State Bank for their support and generosity in making Ranger Preview possible.”
The Office of Recruitment encourages pre-registration. Online registration is available at www.www.nwosu.edu/ranger-preview or by following the Ranger Preview link on Northwestern’s homepage, www.www.nwosu.edu. If a student does not have the opportunity to pre-register, walk-ins are welcome.
The schedule of events for the day includes registration beginning at 9 a.m., with a welcome at 11 a.m. During the morning, students will tour the campus, meet with faculty members from each academic area and also have the opportunity to meet with members of many student organizations on campus. The event will end with a free lunch in the Coronado Cafeteria.
“I look forward to Ranger Preview every year,” Calleb Mosburg, dean of student affairs and enrollment management, said. “The atmosphere is outstanding and truly highlights the Ranger Family in the best possible way. No other event brings together the faculty, staff, students, administration, and community quite like Ranger Preview. The opportunity for students to meet with faculty and with other students is what makes this event so special. Students and their families get the full picture of campus and the people who will be guiding them in their higher education journey. I’m excited for this year’s Ranger Preview and look forward to meeting the future members of the Ranger Family!”
Those attending will receive free tickets to the 3 p.m. Northwestern versus Southwestern Oklahoma State University football game and a free t-shirt.
The $15 college application fee also will be waived for all seniors who attend.
