On the evening of October 15, Sinclair held their first Virtual Fall Affair<\/a> via Zoom. First, admissions held a welcome session. Afterward, academic divisions would meet, and thereon, guests could choose one of four sessions to attend. These sessions were as the following: financial aid and scholarships, regional locations, four-year transfer pathways, and understanding your CCP and TP Credit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the welcome session meeting, admission counselor Morgan Saylors informed the public about Sinclair and how successful the college has been. Sinclair was founded in 1887<\/a>, and today, it offers nearly 300 different programs of study<\/a>, ranging from associate<\/a> to even bachelor\u2019s degrees<\/a> and certificate options<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saylors emphasized that Sinclair is keeping college affordable. According to Sinclair\u2019s Current Cost and Tuition and Fee Schedule<\/a>, classes cost $126.03 per credit hour for Montgomery County residents and $173.28 per credit hour for all other Ohio residents. This is especially affordable for college, as the 2019-20 average tuition for public colleges was $10,440 for in-state residents and $26,820 at public colleges. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many representatives from each of the academic divisions at Sinclair were present, as Sinclair has programs in Liberal Arts, Communication and Social Sciences<\/a>, Business and Public Services<\/a>, Health Sciences<\/a> and Science, Mathematics and Engineering<\/a>. After the welcome meeting, each of these divisions would break out into their own virtual event, informing attendees about their respective programs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sinclair is also known for having strong transferability, for there are many transfer agreements available between Sinclair and several universities<\/a>. Three thousand students transfer each year from a completed Sinclair program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
