Nearly 1,000 people visited 91ÖÆÆ¬³§ during Fall Open House 2022

SOUTH PORTLAND, Maine – Mother nature played along this past Saturday, helping highlight the beautiful 91ÖÆÆ¬³§ (91ÖÆÆ¬³§) campus during the Fall 2022 Open House event.

Nearly 1,000 people including hundreds of prospective students came to campus to meet 91ÖÆÆ¬³§ faculty and staff and explore the exciting opportunities at the College. During the event, faculty from 91ÖÆÆ¬³§’s degree and certificate and short-term Workforce Training programs, along with staff, were available to answer questions from prospective students and their influencers.

The event which ran from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. provided information about how to enroll, program presentations in classroom settings, and an up-close look at the 91ÖÆÆ¬³§â€™s beautiful oceanside campus including its residence halls.

91ÖÆÆ¬³§ President Joe Cassidy addressed the crowd shortly after the doors opened and talked about the palpable excitement from everyone in the room, much of which was from Maine’s new Free College initiative.

“This is an exciting time to be a college student in Maine,” said Cassidy. “Many of you here today are exploring our offerings and looking to learn about our Free College Scholarship. This is an amazing time to learn the skills you need (at 91ÖÆÆ¬³§), and get started on a path that will lead to great success in whatever you choose.”
