“As the spring semester approaches, we want to be sure that incoming students have every opportunity to get their questions answered and get enrolled in their classes,” said Oscar Torres, UHV associate director of enrollment management and new student experience. “Applying to attend college can be an involved process, and we don’t want anyone to be hindered by last-minute needs or paperwork.”

Students who attend Super Saturday will be able to work with representatives from multiple UHV offices, including Admissions, Financial Aid, Student Billing, the four academic colleges, the Student Success Center and Student Housing. Students will be able to get assistance with multiple needs, including registering for classes, filing paperwork, applying for campus housing and more.

In addition to preparing for the semester, tours of campus and the residence halls are available upon request. The event is free and open to any prospective UHV student.
