Have you introduced yourself on Brightcrowd? It’s a private group where students admitted to Mac can introduce themselves, upload photos, learn about other students’ interests, and connect via socials.

In April there will be three in-person Mac Day events for admitted students. You are welcome to attend both virtual and in-person events as your schedule allows.
