Gadsden, Ala. – Prospective students of all ages are invited to attend one of four upcoming Preview Days at Gadsden State Community College on the campus of their choice:

March 4 – 9 to 11:30 a.m., Gadsden State Cherokee in Centre

At Preview Days, students can take guided campus tours to discover a variety of technical, health science and academic programs offered by Gadsden State. Students will also learn about admissions, financial aid scholarships, student life and more.

A panel of current students will focus on their experience as Gadsden State students and how to complete their classes successfully. The panel will be available to answer prospective students' questions.

"Parents are encouraged to attend with their students," said Andy Green, dean of Student Services. "Preview Day is an opportunity for our communities to see what it truly means to join the Cardinal family while taking the first steps towards an educational journey at Gadsden State.

 "Preview Days are designed for prospective students to connect with faculty, staff and current students, allowing them to decide if Gadsden State is the right fit for them,” he said.

The April 4 Preview Day at the East Broad and Wallace Drive campuses will offer additional activities for prospective students. Students are invited to visit the Cardinal Café from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. for lunch service with current students and to experience the convenience of campus life. Also, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., they can visit the One Stop Center on the East Broad Campus to shop at the bookstore and receive assistance with their FAFSA application. Popcorn and drinks will be provided to attendees as a courtesy for continuing the admissions process at Gadsden State.

All prospective students are invited to watch GSCC Baseball take on Calhoun Community College at Gadsden City High School's baseball field. There will be two games, at 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. April 4.

“Our prospective students can experience student life at its fullest while cheering on the Cardinals to victory,” Green said.
