Go for the Gold introduces future students to campus

High school seniors considering attending Oakland University next fall have the opportunity to learn more about what it’s like to be a Golden Grizzly during Go for the Gold, Saturday, October 11, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Oakland Center.


“We want students to learn as much as they can about our academic programs, first-year success programs and opportunities to get involved so they can make a successful transition from high school to college,” said Dawn Aubry, associate director of undergraduate admissions.

Students are invited to attend with their parents because they often work together to make decisions about where to go to college — it’s one of the most important decisions in the student’s life.

Go for the Gold is the student’s first comprehensive look at the university. Guests are invited to attend sessions that include information about admissions, requirements, orientation, next steps, housing and campus life.

The program will contain information about OU’s first-year success programs like COM 101, ConnectionsMy FYE and the C.L.A.W. series. A panel of OU students also will share information about their first-year experiences at OU.

For more information about Go for the Gold, contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions at (800) OAK-UNIV or ouinfo@oakland.edu. To register, use the online reservation system or call (800) OAK-UNIV.
