Are you ready for College?

 

Are you really ready for College??

Let us help you prepare for College. On April 30th Centenary College is offering a day of help for high school Juniors and Sophomores. We are calling it "College Kickstart" 

College Kickstart is a special program to help high school juniors and sophomores better plan for the college admissions process:

• prepare for test-taking with an ACT representative
• find out about the application timeline
• learn how to get the most from your campus visit
• hear from guidance counselors on essay writing and letters of recommendation

Our event will take place at April 30, 2011 from 9am-1pm with registration starts at 9am.

You can register online at http://www.centenary.edu/admissions/kickstart

The Student Ambassadors and the Admissions Office will be here to help you in the process, and answer any questions you might have for us. This day is going to be super informative, and super fun! We will be doing skits, eating some awesome food, and getting YOU started on your college process.

Have any questions about College Kickstart? Send us a email at admissions@centenary.edu

Hope to see you there!!

Diversity Week

Hey Everyone! It's me again :) So last week was Diversity Week and Hall Councils and other organizations around campus put on some pretty cool events. Out on the Caf Dec (a little gathering spot outside of our Cafeteria) there were Caribbean fruit creations, mini maracas, and even a pinata to break filled with delicious chocolate. My favorite event was the International Food Market. I almost forgot about it but I got out of class early and luckily went into the SUB (student union building) and happened upon some yummy free food from different cultures. Needless to say...it was a lot of fun to learn about the different foods and their origins...and hey, it was free food! and that never gets old :). Well, until next time, Adios Amigos!

Spring is upon us!

Hello Centenary!

So as some of you may know, the event of this weekend is called "First Choice Springboard." In previous years, this occasion was known as simply "Preview Weekend," but it has recently been changed to make the event even better. Starting on Friday, our campus will be chalk full of next year's incoming freshmen, who have already decided on Centenary as their college. This is a great opportunity for us as students to interact with you high school seniors, because next you they will be a part of our family! 

Current Centenary Students: if you have not already sent in your information to be a host for the night, I really encourage you to do so. Not only will you be the face that they remember the most, but the fun times that you have with them will be one of their first memories of Centenary! So get involved in this weekend's event, because it can benefit you just as much as them!

Along with this weekend's events, we also have many things happening this week as well! With intramural softball games coming to a close, I really encourage you to get out to Jones Rice and see their final matches!  This week is the week that all of the teams that made it to the playoffs will be competing for the top spot. So get out there and cheer! Also, there is an extremely interesting program happening tomorrow in Kilpatrick Auditorium called "Invisible Illness." According to a study, 1 out of 4 people have an invisible illness, and this program has been created in order to raise awareness. There will also be free Raising Canes!

And lastly, with Easter approaching, it is becoming crunch time for all our classes again! So we are trying to get all our schoolwork done during the day so that we have time to enjoy our nights and above all...sleep! Once we get back from Easter, it is automatically Prep Week, so the end of the year is fast approaching! Which means we all need to get on top of our game, so that we can enjoy Easter break. And of course...enjoy how our GPA looks on the computer screen...

So enjoy spring and its beautiful weather, be active in campus events, and get good grades!
