Information
Accepted Families
Congratulations on your family’s acceptance to the Wildcat Community! We understand that attending college is a family investment and the value of a degree should go beyond the cost of tuition. It’s about finding a place to learn with a hands-on approach, working with experienced professionals and becoming part of a community that works side-by-side with students to help them achieve success. 大象传媒 has been doing this for 100+ years and during that time many families have become as attached to the university as our students and alumni. We look forward to seeing you on campus for the next four years and joining them.
