The WCU Office of Admissions will host “Carey Bound,” an annual early registration event, on Saturday, March 5.
Incoming students will have a chance to experience WCU’s Hattiesburg campus, speak with academic advisors, register for summer and fall classes, and explore ways to get involved on campus.
Parents and guardians are invited to accompany students. They will get first-hand information about WCU processes, meet with administrators, and get acquainted with their student’s home away from home. Breakfast and lunch will be served, and students and their guests will get free admission to a baseball double-header.
The day begins at 9 a.m. at King Student Center:
- 9 am – 11:30 am: Check-in
- 9 am – noon: Advisement & Registration
- 11 am – 12:30 pm: Student Activities Fair
- 11 am – 12:30 pm: Parent Mingle
- 11:30 am – 1 pm: Lunch
- 1 pm – until: Self-guided campus tours
If students can’t attend in-person, a virtual session is Friday, March 4.
“This is my favorite event of the year. Not only do new students have the best schedule possible to start their academic career at Carey, but current and new students also become friends and mentorships begin with students and advisors. It’s a celebration of everything that makes Carey a special place to be,” said Meagan Smith, WCU director of admissions.
To attend Carey Bound, students must have an admission status that qualifies for registration. Students who aren’t sure of their admission status can email admissions@wmcarey.edu or call (601) 318-6103.
