With ingenuity and spirit, staff works to welcome new students to Norwich
In the Admissions Office, we stayed true to Norwich University’s “I Will Try” motto, adapting to the coronavirus pandemic and creating a vibrant year.
We built new opportunities for college-bound students to learn about the Norwich student experiences including academics, athletics, job opportunities from the Career and Internship Center and community good through the Center for Civic Engagement.
We developed flexible ways to safely welcome people who wanted to visit in person, or learn virtually at a distance if they couldn’t. And we created new scholarships to ensure Norwich is affordable.
COVID-19 crisis has high school seniors flummoxed by uncertainty for their future
Hartford High senior Deondra Goodspeed has applied to 11 nursing schools and has received an acceptance from her top choice. She said that the pandemic has strengthened her resolve to become a nurse. Goodspeed moved in March to Bradford, Vt., where she was photographed on Wednesday, Dec. 16, 2020, but decided to finish high school remotely at Hartford rather than change schools so close to graduating.
