Education round up news for k-12 jps MS colleges as school start nears

As Summer winds down, the state’s universities are preparing for returning students for the 2023-2024 academic semester.

At Mississippi State University, admissions kick off on Aug.1 with welcome events featuring fun, games and orientation knowledge.

“Additional campus activities throughout the semester give students a multiplicity of options for getting involved, enhancing academic experiences and enjoying entertainment,” an MSU press release states. “Football games, tailgating and Bulldog Bash — Mississippi’s largest free outdoor concert — are among student favorites during the fall, but other chances to engage with the Bulldog family are ongoing.”

MSU officials said undergraduate students planning to enroll at Mississippi State next summer or fall can apply for university admission beginning Aug. 1 at 8 p.m. during “Hail State @ 8.”
