UW Plans Events for College Signing Day

 

On Wednesday, May 1, students admitted to the University of Wyoming across the state and beyond will participate in College Signing Day and declare their intent to attend UW.

College Signing Day is a national event in which families celebrate their student’s decision to continue their education, similar to celebrations for high school student-athletes who announce their commitments for athletic pursuits.

“Because the world needs more Cowboys, UW will join in the celebration to show its excitement for our next class of students,” Director of Admissions Shelley Dodd said, in a press release. “We’re delighted that students across the Cowboy State and the nation will make their commitment to UW as their number-one college destination.”

Wyoming students bound for UW in the fall will attend Signing Day events at more than 50 high schools across the state. Hosted by the UW Office of Admissions and Wyoming 4-H, the festivities will feature students and families.

  • Campbell County High School- Wednesday, May 1, at 8 a.m.
  • Thunder Basin High School- Wednesday, May 1, at 8 a.m.
  • Sundance High School- Wednesday, May 1, 3:30 p.m.
  • Wright High School- TBD
  • Moorcroft High School- Tuesday, May 7, at 10 a.m.
  • Hulett High School- Wednesday, May 8, at 1:20 p.m.

Signing Day packets are available at the events and include a “The World Just Got Another Cowboy” certificate, an “I Am Bound” banner, and a “Proud Supporter of a Poke” banner.

Out-of-state students who have confirmed their enrollment by Monday, April 22, will receive a packet in the mail. Any student confirmations after that time can download the packet here to participate.
