You're invited
Join us for Multicultural Pride Day for high school students and their parents. Spend a day exploring K-State’s campus and learning about college life.
Find out about majors that will suit you and programs that will help you succeed in college. You'll learn about college life, majors, ways to pay for college, housing options, sororities and fraternities, and more. You'll also explore multicultural organizations and opportunities and take an optional tour of campus.
Our lunch program includes entertainment by multicultural student groups. If your school is bringing a group to campus, you are invited to participate in this special lunch performance. Contact Madaí Rivera at mri5555@k-state.edu or 785-532-5500.
