Everyone had a great time at this past AP Day. There was a fair with popcorn, pics with celebrities (well The Gov, he’s an Austin Peay celebrity!), campus tours, information sessions, and even lunch in the cafeteria. If you had to miss out on all the fun this past Saturday, no need to worry! Another AP Day is right around the corner.

The last AP Day for this year is being held on Saturday, November 3rd. I really hope that you and your friends and family can come out and join us. It is the best way to gain information about Austin Peay and see the campus. Not to mention what a blast it is.

Don’t worry it’s not to late to register! Want to sign up? Head on over to our main website and click the AP Day button on the homepage. Or simply call 1(800)844-APSU to register over the phone.

See you there? I hope so!

Yours Truely, Megan Mitchell - Admissions Counselor with The Gov

Hey everyone! I just wanted to write this blog for those of you out there that haven’t heard about our scholarship update. Our freshman academic scholarships at Austin Peay are now awarded on a first come, first serve basis to those who qualify. The requirement for scholarships are a 3.0 GPA and a 23 on the ACT. These scholarhships start at $500 and can increase up to $6,000! That is a lot of dough, especially when it is renewed over the next four years.

If APSU is on your list of schools I would highly encourage you to go ahead and apply for admission, once you are admitted to Austin Peay you will be automatically awarded the scholarship money you qualify for. How easy is that? Be sure to get your application, official transcript and ACT/SAT scores, and your $15 application fee into us today; because once the money is gone it’s gone!

Any questions about scholarships? Let me know and I will get back to you ASAP!

Long time, no post! I have been really busy and I have been traveling all over the state of Tennessee recruiting future Govs and have let my blogs fall behind, sorry about that. I have really enjoyed getting to be on the road though and I have made some really great friends at other schools across the state of Tennessee and that is what inspired me to write this post. So many times when I am on the road recruiting I see groups of friends that are determined to go to the same school. While I understand that leaving the comfort of high school is a scary thing it is sooo important for you to make the decision about where you want to go to school on your own. You shouldn’t let your boyfriend/girlfriend, BFF, or your parents make this decision for you.

College is the first step you take into becoming a responsible, independent adult. It should be a decision you made and one that you feel completely sure about. Just like I have made friends at other schools you will be able to have friends at other schools too. Just because your best friend goes to another school doesn’t mean that you have to end the friendship, it just means the friendship will change. So when you are looking at schools there is only one thing you should think about: Is this where YOU want to go?

Remember, Go Where YOU Want!

Let’s Go Peay!
