Bursar's Office welcomes prospective students on Discover Day
|
 |
|
Laura McCarty and Sandra Ott enjoyed visiting with prospective UA Little Rock students at the Oct. 13 Discover Day event. During the day, they introduced attendees to the services offered by the Bursar's Office and the role their office would take in helping them accomplish their educational goals. There was also lots of fun and laughter as students posed for the Snap Chat scholarship contest and played Corn Hole for prizes. Laura effectively summed up the event: "Discover Day shows potential students that UA Little Rock is more than just a university, it is a community."
The next Discover Day will be on Friday, Nov. 3. Please come together to showcase our campus and demonstrate to these potential students that UA Little Rock is the place for them.
