Prospective
Students and Parents Are Invited to LIU Day
At Long Island University's Brooklyn Campus on November 16
Brooklyn, N.Y. - An open door and a welcome mat are on the agenda
for prospective students and their families, who are all invited
to visit Long Island University's Brooklyn Campus.
"LIU Day" will take place on Sunday, November 16,
from 11 to 3 p.m. throughout the Campus, and is free and open
to the public. It will include campus tours and information
from the schools of business, education, health professions,
liberal arts and sciences, nursing and pharmacy. Also showcased
will be the honors program and individualized support available
through career, financial and academic advisement services,
and student activities. The application fee will be waived for
those who submit an application for admissions at LIU Day.
Since 1926, the Brooklyn Campus has helped to transform the
lives of generations of students from all ethnic and socioeconomic
backgrounds - opening the doors to the city and the world -
while maintaining respect for their intellectual, cultural and
academic traditions. Many of today's students are new to America,
new to the English language or the first in their families to
seek a university education.
The Brooklyn Campus's nationally and internationally recruited
faculty is deeply committed to teaching, personal advisement
of students, scholarship and faculty development and service.
Its staff and faculty also endorse the notion that an excellent
liberal arts education together with careful preparation for
a rewarding career is the best way to achieve fulfilling lives
for our students.
The Campus offers comprehensive undergraduate curricula and
advanced courses and graduate programs in specialized areas.
It has designed programs for students to acquire essential writing,
math and computer literacy, analytic and reasoning skills and
effective communications skills.
For more information, call the Admissions Office at (718) 488-1011
or the Public Relations Office at (718) 488-1015.
Long Island
University opened its Brooklyn Campus in 1926, welcoming a diverse
population at a time when other major universities enforced quota
systems against racial and ethnic minorities. Some 30,000 students
currently are enrolled at the university's three residential and
three regional campuses, including more than 11,000 at the Brooklyn
Campus. Located at the corner of Flatbush Avenue Extension and
DeKalb Avenue in Downtown Brooklyn, the Campus is accessible to
all major bus and subway routes and the Long Island Rail Road.
