April 9, 2026 – Stone Ridge, NY – SUNY Ulster will host its 2026 Spring Open House and Accepted Students Day on the Stone Ridge campus on Saturday, April 25. Check-in starts at 8:30 a.m., followed by a Welcome Address at 9 a.m. Scheduled sessions and tours will begin promptly at 9:30 a.m. and run through 2 p.m.
Attendees will learn about SUNY Ulster’s academic programs, student services, campus life, athletics, and more. They’ll also have the chance to attend a College Services Fair, an Academic Program Showcase presented by faculty, and a campus tour led by Student Admissions Ambassadors.
Demos and hands-on experiences will also be featured, including art portfolio reviews, a podcast studio tour and digital storytelling, an advanced manufacturing lab demo, a veterinary triage simulation, and more.
Prospective students will also receive guidance from our Enrollment & Success Center Team and other Student Services professionals through the Admissions process, an overview of SUNY Ulster scholarships, the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), and other important foundational resources to ensure student success.
In addition to the above activities, accepted students beginning their studies in the Fall 2026 semester will also attend special sessions designed to help students prepare and transition to college. They will also have the opportunity to schedule appointments with an advisor for a later date.
Student Government President and Phi Theta Kappa member, Aiden Banbury ‘26, will be speaking at Open House and says, “I applied to several four-year schools, but when the numbers came back, reality hit—college is expensive, and pretending it isn’t doesn’t help. I originally planned to transfer after one year, but within my first two months, that plan changed. SUNY Ulster quickly showed me it wasn’t just an affordable option—it was a place where I could grow, get involved, and make the most of my experience.”
Reservations for Open House are preferred, but walk-ins are welcome for this event. Those who reserve their spot in advance will receive an individualized schedule for the day’s planned activities tailored to their interests and educational goals. A brunch buffet will be available at our college services fair and all guests will receive a discount on SUNY Ulster Spirit Wear in the campus bookstore.
