Each program hosted sessions in dedicated spaces across campus, with DPT and PA welcoming guests in Smith Hall and PharmD hosting in Maddox Hall.

Throughout the day, student ambassadors played a key role in creating a welcoming and interactive environment. They greeted guests, led tours, assisted with activities, and provided firsthand insight into student life at CPHS. Faculty and staff also connected with attendees, sharing details about didactic coursework and hands-on clinical experiences that prepare students for careers in healthcare.

“Prospective Student Day is one of our favorite opportunities to connect with future students and their families,” said Maggie Pasnak, senior admissions coordinator. “It allows us to showcase not only our programs, but also the supportive and collaborative community that defines CPHS.”

Admissions Coordinator Madelyn Cooper added, “Seeing students engage with our faculty, interact with current students, and begin to envision themselves here is incredibly rewarding. We are excited to help guide them on their journey into the health professions.”

The event concluded with lunch, giving guests additional time to connect with faculty, staff, and students while reflecting on their experience.

The College extends its sincere thanks to everyone who helped plan and run the event, as well as to the many guests who took time to visit campus and learn more about CPHS programs.
