High school juniors to learn about college life at K-State’s Just For Juniors event in Manhattan
High school juniors from Manhattan, Kansas, and the surrounding area will have a chance
to learn firsthand about college life at the K-State Alumni Association’s Just For
Juniors event Sept. 26 in Manhattan at the K-State Alumni Center, 100 Alumni Center,
1720 Anderson Avenue.
Registration and the career mingling session will begin at 6:30 p.m., and the program
will begin at 7 p.m. At the event, high school juniors can learn about K-State’s more
than 250 degree programs, visit with members of the Alumni Association’s Student Alumni
Board, learn how to build college schedules and have an opportunity to ask questions
about going to college. Juniors in attendance will be eligible to win one of three
$100 K-State scholarships.
“Just For Juniors gives high schoolers an opportunity learn more about life at K-State
and have some fun too,” said Andrea Bryant Gladin, director of alumni programs for
the Alumni Association. “K-State students will meet with them to help answer questions
about college as they start thinking about their futures.”
Parents in attendance can meet with representatives from the university’s admissions
and financial assistance offices to learn about costs, scholarships, the application
process and other college topics.
Walk-ins are welcome, and there is no cost to attend, but advance registration is
encouraged. Registration forms are available online at www.k-state.com/justforjuniors. For more information, call the Alumni Association at 800-600-ALUM (2586) or visit
