Info Sessions

“Info Session” is short for “Information Session” and it is an event hosted by you for the prospective students interested in your online program. The info session can be a very valuable recruitment tool used to:

• Inform prospective students about the features and benefits of your program and online learning at UofL
• Help prospective students make a decision about applying to your program and determine if it is a good fit
• Encourage prospective students to enroll in your online program

It is your opportunity to speak directly with prospects and really show them what makes your program shine, how valuable your program is for their professional growth and why they should come to UofL to fulfill their educational goals.
