WELCOME TO THE OCTOBER 2003 ISSUE OF PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS @ GREENVILLE.EDU

Dear Prospective Students:

Greetings from Greenville College!

It's hard to believe that we're already close to two months into the school
year. Homecoming and Parents' Weekend was held two weeks ago, marking the
midpoint of the semester. In just a few weeks, it will be time for Thanksgiving.

Those of you who are seniors in high school should definitely consider
coming for the Scholarship Competitions and PreviewDays that will be held
during the year.  The second Scholarship Competition will be held on
December 13.  Further information on registration is contained in the
newsletter. If you haven't already signed up, take a look at our PreviewDay on November 10 as a great date to visit campus. We would love to host you!

Please don't forget that you are able to apply for admission at Greenville College by visiting http://www.greenville.edu/admissions/application/. The $25 application fee is waived if you apply in this manner.

Enjoy the rest of this issue...and thank you for your continued interest in Greenville College.

Greenville College's annual Homecoming and Parents' Weekend had as much

the center was funded in the spring of 2003 with a $300,000 comprehensive
campaign contribution by Dr. Vivien Wallace Maves, a 1928 Greenville College graduate. The 12,000 square foot building now includes classrooms, offices, sculpture and ceramic studios, a wood shop, and individual studio space for seniors. It unites facilities that were once contained in Archer Hall and
