Overview
Hosting an opportunity for prospective students to talk to your admissions team, ask questions, and explore campus is a crucial step in the recruitment journey as prospects evaluate their options during their school search.
In our Packs library, we have two resources to help you promote and manage attendance for both an in-person campus tour and a virtual information session using the Events module.
This Pack is for any institution seeking to host an on-campus tour or a virtual information session. It can be installed multiple times to promote multiple events.
To use any Pack in the Library, you must first set up your Packs Tokens. Click here to learn more about Packs Tokens.
