– Decision Day Extended –

The enrollment confirmation for first-year students admitted for fall 2024 is extended to June 1. Due to June 1 being a Saturday, the Office of Admissions will assist anyone experiencing technical difficulties or needing other assistance on Monday, June 3. Rest assured that this will not affect your ability to commit to the UO.

What is your best advice for high school students looking to attend college?: Be intentional about establishing nurturing and supportive relationships with your peers, faculty, and staff. This allows you to develop a network to achieve personal and academic success. Leverage the programs and resources across campus; strategically explore your academic interests; embrace challenges; and take ownership of your education and experience.

Do you have a particular favorite UO "fun fact"?: The UO has one Heisman Trophy winner.

What's your favorite place to hang out on the UO campus or in Eugene, and why? : I love the beautiful landscape that surrounds the north side of Fenton Hall and the Lillis Business Complex.

If you didn't work in admissions what would you be doing instead?: I would love to be an English and humanities teacher in Europe or a Spanish speaking country.
