Faculty, staff, and students shared their perspectives on the University of Windsor experience with visitors at the Ontario Universities’ Fair, this past weekend in Toronto.
The Ontario Universities’ Fair (OUF) returned to the Toronto Metro Convention Centre last weekend. The University of Windsor again made an incredible impact in the eyes of 78,000+ prospective students and their supporters, which included distributing 22,500+ copies of its newest viewbook and admissions guide, says Chris Busch.
“Returning to an in-person event such as OUF provides the University with a unique opportunity to share what makes us an outstanding study destination for students who reside in the Greater Toronto region,” says Dr. Busch, associate vice-president, enrolment management.
“Participating faculty, staff, and students were able to talk one-on-one with guests to share, from their perspectives, why they should consider attending the University next fall.”
This year’s exhibit included a refreshed interior conversation café and video wall sharing the wide range of undergraduate programs, state-of-the-art sports and performance facilities, worldwide exchange programs, one of the lowest student-to-faculty ratios in Ontario, a diverse and vibrant campus community, and the ability for students to find their “circle” on campus.
“The intentionally designed space and conversations helped convey to prospective students an important message – that we will help them thrive by attending UWindsor,” Busch says.
“On behalf of the entire team, I would like to thank everyone who shared their passion, knowledge, and time this weekend by participating in this year’s event, and we look forward to welcoming many of these prospective students onto campus next month at Fall Open House, which is being held on Nov. 5.”
