Description
NASD is an annual event held every November for high school students, parents, educators, counselors and tribal representatives. The Thursday evening component is primarily for those participants traveling from outside the Everett, Seattle and Tacoma areas; approximately fifty mile radius. The morning session begins with a continental breakfast in the West Ballroom of the Student Union Building (HUB), followed by a Prayer, a Coastal Welcome Song, Keynote Speaker, campus tour, departmental fair and various presentations not limited to: Admissions, Financial Aid and the Office of Minority Affairs just to name a few. The afternoon session meets back in the HUB's West Ballroom with a student panel followed by an inspirational speaker, closing address and a prayer.
Room accommodations and meals are paid for as long as the students and chaperones are registered to attend NASD. We are not responsible for and cannot pay for any travel incurred expenses.
