Join us March 10th to 

  • Get the latest admissions and scholarship updates from Associate Dean and Director of Admissions: Professor Serge D'Alessio.
  • Meet advisors and senior students who want to tell you more about the program you've applied to.
  • Learn about co-op: steps to getting a job, study-work sequences, resources to help you succeed in co-op, and how to be ready for your first work term. Student panelists share their experiences and job-tested tips for succeeding in co-op.
  • Not in co-op? Learn about "The Edge" - the alternative to co-op: a program to help make you job ready and equip you for job search success.
  • Attend first-year lectures taught by amazing professors in math, computer science, and math and business.
  • Participate in a hands-on Euclid-style problems workshop and get tips for solving challenging problems. The Euclid Contest takes place on April 11.
  • Drop by the information fair in the Math 3 Atrium between sessions to get your questions answered. Booths are staffed by admissions officers, the Associate Dean for Co-op, Math in Europe advisor, and advisors and students from all of the programs in Computer Science, Math Business and Accounting programs, and the Math majors.
  • Take a 40-minute student-led tour of the Math Faculty buildings - everything from academic to student life is covered: you'll see classrooms, labs, and study spaces; you'll meet students at the Clubs Information Fair in MC; and you'll learn about the pink tie tradition. 
  • Conclude your day in Village 1 residence with a tour, followed by a Math Faculty Alumni Career Panel and dinner. If you're not in a hurry to head home or you'd like to avoid the traffic leaving campus, consider planning this option into your day. Meet at the M3-Atrium Welcome Booth at 4:30 pm and a Math Faculty Ambassador will take you to Village 1 residence. The residence tour, dinner, and career panel run from 5-7 pm. Registration is required.
