Open House: Welcoming Future Lions
While alumni are rekindling memories and roaring with pride, prospective students and families will also experience the spark of Albright during Open House. It’s the perfect opportunity to meet professors, connect with current students, and see firsthand what makes Albright more than just a college, it’s a community.
And what better way to experience campus than on a weekend where the pride is turned all the way up? Future Lions will not only explore academics and programs but also get a taste of the traditions, energy, and fun that make Albright unique.
