Auburn Updates

I have several updates that I wanted to share with you in case it’s beneficial to any of your students.

Housing:

As a part of the on campus housing application; student can list one roommate. We just found out that housing will be using the earliest date between roommate’s housing applications. In the years past they have used the latest date between the two students.

College of Agriculture:

Some of your students could have received an invitation to the College of Agriculture’s minority event scheduled for December 2^nd. I have attached the forms to this email, and the deadline to signup is November 20^th (this Friday). Sounds like a great event, and they are awarding a $1,000 scholarship at the end of the event!

College of Veterinary Medicine:

The College of Veterinary Medicine has an open house scheduled for April 16^th. The website does not have additional information posted yet, but questions can be directed to 334/844-2497.

Admissions:

As you know; decisions have been very competitive this year. If you have a student who was deferred in November (their status says, “file still under review”), please have them reach out to me so that I can assist with their application. If they were deferred, please remind them that the reviewing committee wants to see something new in their file before the next round. We have decisions on December 15^th, and on February 15^th.

Scholarships:

If you have a student with a 34 ACT or above, they MUST fill out our one scholarship application called AUSOM by December 1^st in order to be eligible for the Plainsman Prestigious Scholarships. February 10^th is still the deadline for all academic, departmental, and general scholarships.
