You're about to embark on a thrilling adventure, but you won't be doing it alone. We're here to answer any and all questions our incoming class may have.
So, what can you do now? Here are few initial steps to becoming a Forester:
1. Visit campus
Campus looks different after you’ve been admitted. Visiting campus is a critical step in finalizing your college decision, and we are excited to share our admitted student reimbursement visit program for out-of-state first-year students where we will subsidize up to $500 in travel expenses.
2. Connect with your admissions counselor
The friendly faces in Patterson Lodge know you from the application process and are happy to help answer your questions and connect you with other members of the campus community.

Connect with our staff if you have questions regarding merit scholarships, need-based aid, or other concerns related to the cost of attendance.
4. Chat with faculty and alumni
Learn even more about 91社区 by chatting with professors in various departments across campus as well as alumni. Your admissions counselor can assist in setting up a time to connect.
5. Join our admitted student community on ZeeMee
is a social app designed for the college journey where you can join the admitted student chat, connect with students who share your interests, take the roommate quiz, and participate in live social events!

All that's left for your to do is confirm your place on campus by submitting your deposit. Submitting this form and making your $200 non-refundable deposit indicates your formal commitment to enroll as a new 91社区 student.
