Brock University offering free London shuttle to Open House

MEDIA RELEASE: 29 March 2019 

As Brock’s annual Spring Open House nears, the Niagara region University is hoping to make travel to campus easier for potential students in Southwestern Ontario.

This area is well represented and an important part of the Brock student community. More than 89 per cent of applicants from the region already have their Offers of Admission in hand. As a result, Brock is providing a free shuttle to and from London and St. Thomas for Open House on Sunday, April 7.

Prospective students may bring up to two guests along for the ride. The free shuttle will pick-up and drop-off at Parkside Collegiate Institute in St. Thomas and Oakridge Secondary School in London. Registration for the bus is mandatory and can be done at: discover.brocku.ca/openhouse/bus/

Running from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Open House aims to provide a taste of all that Brock has to offer. In addition to a comprehensive information fair, visitors will have the chance to tour campus, meet students, senior administrators, faculty and staff, attend presentations related to programs of interest, learn about student services and research opportunities, and even take in a first-year lecture.

Tours of residences, research labs, athletic facilities and the Marilyn I. Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts downtown will also be available, in addition to welcome sessions to help visitors make the most of their time on campus.

“The day will be action-packed, allowing for a ‘choose your own adventure’ style experience that meets students’ personal interests and passions,” said Beth Natale, Director, Recruitment for Brock University. “Open House is one of the best ways to solidify that Brock is the right choice for your future.”

Online registration and a full schedule of the day’s events can be found at discover.brocku.ca/openhouse/
