U of R’s Fall 2017 Open House (Sat., Oct.14, 9 a.m - 3:30 p.m.) promises to be an info-packed day where prospective students (parents are welcome) can tour the campus, meet faculty and staff, and discover the long list of helpful student services offered. Eligible students may even be admitted on the spot (and save $30), receive automatic entrance scholarships (we’ll even throw in a pair of prized limited edition U of R mittens). In order to apply on the spot, Grade 12 students need to be sure to bring their unofficial early conditional transcript with them (high school guidance counsellors can assist with this) and $70 for the application fee.
