SLATE / INTERACTIVE ADMISSIONS EXPERIENCES
Interactive admissions experiences helping students and families explore campus, academic paths, everyday student life, and the college decision.
Designed and built by David Dysart.
ONE COLLECTION / FOUR EXPERIENCES
A college decision involves more than choosing a major. Students want to imagine where they will learn, who they will meet, and how their days might feel. Families bring questions about support, affordability, and what comes next.
This collection of four Slate portals gives visitors different ways to explore the institution, with choices that reflect their interests and stage of the college search.
01 / CAMPUS / YOUR ROUTE
Explore campus on your own terms.
An eight-stop virtual tour invites visitors to explore campus spaces and build a route around what matters to them. Each stop offers context and choices for where to explore next.

THE APPROACH
Each portal gives visitors a useful action: choose a campus route, build a day, compare programs, or prepare questions. The experiences combine institution information with flexible navigation, allowing students and families to explore at their own pace.
The portals were built in Slate using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, with responsive layouts and content structures that support future updates.
