More than 1,000 visitors toured John Abbott College in Ste- Anne-de-Bellevue on Wednesday evening during the CEGEP’s annual winter open house.
The turnout for the event, which caters to students looking to enroll in the college, was higher than in previous years, an Abbott official said.
Faculty, staff and students were on hand to meet high school students and their families, as well as many adults looking to enroll in courses themselves.
Visitors wondered the campus and the many facilities, speaking with volunteers to learn all the ins and outs of the programs and services for which John Abbott is so well-known.
John Abbott College has about 6,500 full-time day students and 2,000 students in its continuing education department.
