LANSING, Mich. — Ferris State University is hosting a virtual open house on Wednesday, April 22, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. This event is in response to student and parent concerns about how the coronavirus (COVID-19) is impacting our state and how to move forward with their education.

At the Zoom-hosted event, students can talk to Ferris staff from our Lansing office (on the campus of Lansing Community College), the main campus in Big Rapids as well as our Ferris offices across the state of Michigan. Students can get answers about programs, admissions, financial aid and will even have the opportunity to be admitted at the event.

To be admitted, students must submit official or unofficial transcripts and test scores to transfer@ferris.edu before the event.

“We understand there are many unknowns about when the state will open up and our lives will get back to 'normal.' However, students should not stop planning their future. Ferris is open and continuing to serve students – just in a different way. This open house is an opportunity for future students to get support as they move forward,” said Steve Reifert, dean of Extended and International Operations, which includes the Ferris Statewide and Online unit.

Ferris State University is a four-year public university with campuses in Big Rapids, Grand Rapids and satellite campuses across the state of Michigan. Ferris offers more than 190 educational programs, including doctorates, master’s, bachelor’s and associate degrees, through eight academic colleges: Arts and Sciences, Business, Education and Human Services, Engineering Technology, Health Professions, Kendall College of Art and Design, Michigan College of Optometry and Pharmacy.
