College Fly-In Programs

Hi There,

My Name is Zaheer Bowen and I'm an Intern with Hobart and William Smith Colleges Admissions looking to connect you with an exciting new program we're offering. This November HWS is hosting our first Access 2 Success weekend in which we invite students from historically underrepresented backgrounds to participate in a cost-free weekend visit at the Colleges.

Between 30-35 students will be chosen to attend the Access 2 Success weekend and the deadline to apply is October 17th. ​As an organization that works closely with students from diverse backgrounds, this is a great opportunity to provide them with a weekend of true college immersion through a campus hosting from current HWS students.

The schedule for the weekend is: Arrival at Hobart and William Smith on Thursday (11/10) evening to be paired with a student-host, attending classes with the student host on Friday (11/11) with the end of the day dedicated to an exploration of school social activities and campus events, and finally an Open House on Saturday (11/12) morning with our Admissions staff. Accepted students will then return home on Saturday afternoon/evening after the open house.

Both food and necessary transportation will be covered for all accepted applicants, and students can apply through this link: https://apply.hws.edu/register/HWSAccess2Success.

If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. We hope you'll encourage those in your communities to apply!

Thanks,

Zaheer
