You don’t need to have it figured out yet

Many students who come to Open House aren’t sure what they want to study. Some are deciding between two completely different programs. Some just want to walk around campus and see if it feels right before committing to anything.

If cost is on your mind, there are financial aid advisors on site who can walk you through what’s available to you—scholarships, bursaries, grants—and what tuition looks like from term to term.

If you’re curious about residence, there’s a mock room set up so you can see exactly what your space could look like.

If you don’t even know what questions to ask, student ambassadors from every program can help with exactly that.

A lot can happen in one day

Open House is a chance to ask the questions you’ve been sitting on and get a real feel for what being a MacEwan student actually looks like. Before you commit to anything.
