Prospective Students
STEP 8 - Bring your Family + Friends to the College Preview
Having a supportive and informed network of family and friends can help make your time at ACAD much more productive and easier to transition into. Besides, you've successfully negotiated the application process and it is time to show off your new home - so bring your supporters to the Family + Friends College Preview! This event provides an opportunity for supporters to learn more about ACAD and how they can support students during their studies. Work from the current Graduating Students' Exhibition will also be on view. Students, family, partners or spouse are invited to this session. Stay afterwards for a few snacks and casual conversation with college resource people.
