Director's Corner Wrap Up

Jason Trainer
Director of Admissions
The end of another school year is upon us, and this is already the last issue of the College BoUND Family e-Newsletter series. We hope these monthly updates have been helpful to you and your student as they prepared for college.
As we look back at the 2016-17 year, we had quite a bit of success at UND, especially with our prospective student events and the new 'One UND' Strategic Plan.
Prospective Student Events
This April we had our second annual Admitted Student Day held on the UND campus. Almost 200 prospective students and their parents from 19 states and one province got the chance to see what life would be like if they attended UND in the future. The event was a great success with many students that attended saying it was their turning point in making the decision to come to UND.
We also held our annual UND Open House last October. This event brought almost 600 prospective students and about 2,000 total visitors to campus over two days.
UND Strategic Plan
Last month UND President Mark Kennedy formally launched the 'One UND' Strategic Plan to faculty, staff and students. The strategic plan is a 5-year blueprint to position the University of North Dakota as the premier flagship of the Northern Plains.
Thank you for choosing UND, and we can't wait to see your student on campus in the fall!
