Upcoming Events with Front Range Community College - Westminster


Open House on November 8th
Our Annual Fall Open House will be taking place this Thursday, November 8th from 3:30-6pm. This is a great opportunity for students to learn about the different academic programs we offer by talking to faculty members, get questions answered by staff from different student service departments, and take a tour of the campus. Please encourage your students and their families to attend! More information and the sign up can be found on our website at www.frontrange.edu/openhouse.

Visit Campus with Pathway Days!
To align with becoming a Pathways College, Admissions & Outreach has developed a new way for high school students to visit campus – Pathway Days! Each of our free Pathway Days events centers on 1 of our 6 Career and Academic Communities (CACs) so we can better target students who are interested in a specific program area. Pathway Day attendees get to hear from faculty members about their classes and attend a resource fair to learn more about our student support services. Our first Pathway Day event is Friday, November 30th and will focus on the Social Sciences, Education & Public Service Career and Academic Community. This CAC includes the following programs: Anthropology, Criminal Justice & Public Safety, Early Childhood Education, Economics, Elementary Education, Geography, History, Political Science, Psychology and Sociology. If any of your students are interested in these programs, we would love for them to sign up to attend this free visit at www.frontrange.edu/wcpathwaydays.

Public Safety Dispatch Certificate
We are excited to be offering a new program at the Westminster Campus – a Public Safety Dispatch Certificate! This is a great option for students who are interested in Criminal Justice. Students can use this certificate to get into an in-demand job in less than a year. See this news article for an idea of just how many people are needed for this exciting career: https://kdvr.com/2018/08/06/dispatchers-in-short-supply-in-colorado/. An internship is included in the certificate, giving students an opportunity to get some hands-on experience in the career field.

FAFSA Fun Day November 11th
Do you know of any students who need help completing their FAFSA? If so, please send them to FRCC’s FAFSA Fun Day on Sunday, November 11th from 1-3pm! We’ll have financial aid experts on hand to answer questions and assist students and parents with completing the form. This event is free and students have an opportunity to enter a drawing to win a $1,000 scholarship to FRCC! Don’t forget to bring your tax information and W-2 forms. Also, create a FSA ID beforehand at https://fsaid.ed.gov.

Want to Learn More about FRCC?
We offer weekly information sessions for future FRCC students to get to know our institution. At the Information Session/Campus Tours, students and their families will take a tour of the campus and get to hear all about the academic programs and support services we offer. Students will also find out about FRCC tuition costs, financial aid, and scholarship opportunities.
