WANAKENA — The SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry’s Ranger School will host an open house on Saturday, May 4.

This program will include presentations from the director on the unique academic and student life experiences, admission and financial aid, a campus tour with students, lunch in the dining hall and a mini-field experience.

The open house in Wanakena is a full day event. To register, visit www.esf.edu/admissions/rsvisit.asp.

The Ranger School offers three Associate in Applied Science degree programs, which may open doors to forest, natural resources conservation or land surveying technology careers, or serve as a hands-on, experience-based step toward a Bachelor of Science degree.

Within the curriculum, there are three areas of study: forest technology, land surveying technology and environmental and natural resources conservation.

The Ranger School’s one-plus-one plan allows students to complete their first year of higher education at the college of their choice, then complete their second year at the Ranger School. Students wishing to continue on for their bachelor’s degree may do so at ESF’s main campus in Syracuse.
