The top majors of the Class of 2020 include Mechanical Engineering, Accounting and Biology. According to Sarah Gibbs, Director of Admissions, \u201cThe purpose behind Admitted Student Day is to provide an authentic collegian experience to future students, giving them the opportunity to take a deeper look at their major\u2019s department, meet future classmates and experience the friendly atmosphere.\u201d Students are given the opportunity to make their final decisions by visiting the table for the Office of Admissions where they can deposit their checks. Steve Vago, Senior Admissions Counselor, emphasizes that it is crucial that current GCC students be themselves during the course of the day, exercising and displaying the College\u2019s distinguishable friendly reputation. Gibbs and Vago have seen positive results and have received encouraging feedback, specifically from parents who found Student Life and Learning\u2019s involvement with the Parent and Student Track Sessions along with the Student and Parent Panels very accommodating.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.gcc.edu\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/04\/Admitted-Students-1.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1516\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1516 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.gcc.edu\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/04\/Admitted-Students-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Admitted Students 1\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.gcc.edu\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/04\/Admitted-Students-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.gcc.edu\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/04\/Admitted-Students-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.gcc.edu\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/04\/Admitted-Students-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.gcc.edu\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/04\/Admitted-Students-1.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Alec Gehman, future mechanical engineer in the Class of 2020, expressed that the role of Christianity along with the importance of faith was really evidenced throughout the day\u2019s activities, which even further encouraged his decision. Father of Gehman, Bare states, \u201cThe involvement of the President, Faculty and Career Services made the experience surreal, truly displaying the College\u2019s inclusive and pristine character.\u201d A couple, who desires to remain anonymous, stated that they have seen the progressing role faith continues to play in the life of their daughter, who currently attends GCC, and are excited to have their son attend the College as a political science major. After attending the Admitted Student Day for a second time, they enjoyed returning back to GCC to learn about a different department where their son can succeed academically being trained in a school whose political views are in alignment with a moral and sacred worldview. After conducting numerous interviews with the administration, students and parents it appears that this year\u2019s Admitted Student Day has outdone itself!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Grove City College\u2019s Admitted Student Day offers high school students (already accepted) an academically exclusive experience at the College.
