Interested in Thaddeus Stevens College?
Greetings from the Admissions Office!
We recognize that during this unique time, students and parents are missing out on learning about career paths and post-secondary education opportunities due to the cancelation of college fairs, classroom presentations, guidance visits, and etc.
The Admissions Office is excited to announce that in an attempt to remedy that situation , we are starting to use social media as a resource for students, parents, and teachers to be connected with our college recruiters. We will be hosting our first virtual “Question and Answer Session” with a recruiter on Facebook and Instagram. I included the website links to the events below in case you would want to share with any of your students that are still career searching. It is also not too late for seniors to still apply for the Fall 2020 school year. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Facebook Session Friday, April 10th 12:00 to 1:00pm
