DOHA: Georgetown University School of Foreign Service in Qatar (SFS-Q) will host its annual Admissions Open House today at SFS-Q.
With demand for places at SFS-Q rising year over year, the event will open the doors of the university for one night, and provides potential students and parents the opportunity to come to campus and engage with SFS-Q staff, faculty, students and alumni to experience first-hand what the university has to offer in a welcoming and informal atmosphere.
The open house will be held between 5pm and 7pm.
Joseph Hernandez, interim director of admissions said: "During various school visits throughout Qatar and the region this fall, it was clear that more students were interested in our programme than ever before, and this is something we're proud of.
"We're now ready to host those students and their families on campus. The Open House is organised to give those potential students interested in studying at SFS-Q a unique insight into what that experience is like in a transparent and interactive manner. It's an opportunity to hear from our staff, faculty and students on studying, socialising and being part of the SFS-Q community."
A fair will then be held in the atrium in which guests will be able to visit booths set up and run by various departments in SFS-Q, to have the opportunity to ask questions and engage personally with the SFS-Q community.
Tours of the campus will also be offered during which visitors can see the state-of-the-art facilities; including classrooms; stunning library recognised as the best in the country; and top recreational facilities.
