Return to the L.C. Smith Web SiteRegister for the Women's Overnight

On Friday, April 26, 2013, the members of SU’s Society of Women Engineers (SWE), the Women in Science and Engineering program, and the sisters of Alpha Omega Epsilon will host an overnight visit opportunity for women admitted to our programs in engineering and computer science. This event will be held in conjunction with the LCS Open House, which will take place on Saturday, April 27, 2013.

Visiting students will be paired up for an overnight visit with one of our undergraduate women students in a University housing. In addition, an evening of events is planned for Friday to help give prospective students a glimpse of undergraduate life at Syracuse University.

We cordially invite you to join us for these activities!

*RSVP! You must RSVP by Monday, April 22, to participate in the overnight program!

The Overnight check-in and welcome dinner will take place at the Sheraton Syracuse University Hotel and Conference Center, located at 801 University Avenue, Syracuse, NY 13210. Complimentary parking will be available in the Sheraton parking garage.
