We are all things Chicago Harris.
We are Team Harris.
Team Harris is unique to Chicago Harris, in that it is the only student-led organization that is entirely devoted to addressing the needs of prospective students. We do this by maximizing the talents and creativity of our student body, and bringing them together in the form of various initiatives. Currently, we boast a membership of over 60 Chicago Harris students!
SOCIAL MEDIA/BLOG
We know where you go to find answers, because that's where we go as well - social media. Our Social Media chairs are committed to providing content that truly interests you. We are active on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and on our very own blog, More Than Numbers. We will be posting all sorts of content, from student-life activities and live-tweeting events, to featured faculty and student profiles. We encourage you to follow us, ask us questions, re-post, re-tweet. If you want more student-specific information than what we provide on our main website, here is where to find it:

RECRUITMENT
Team Harris is a key part of our recruitment efforts. In addition to the several recruitment events our Admissions staff attend throughout the country each year, Team Harris also designs and facilitates on-campus/off-campus recruitment events. Team Harris will host its second annual "Off the MaPP" event to supplement our annual "On the MaPP" event on April 12, 2013. This event gives prospective students a unique opportunity to casually engage with current Chicago Harris students in a fun and pressure-free environment.
OUTREACH
We understand that prospective students have important questions during the admissions process. We want to ensure that every single question is addressed quickly and with precision. We believe that Team Harris offers valuable insight from the student perspective. Our Outreach Team conducts several outreach campaigns throughout the admissions cycle - from writing personal handwritten notes to applicants, video chatting with international applicants, to personal emails and phone calls. This is personal to us - no robots, no phone banks - you will speak with a Chicago Harris student who is genuinely interested in you, fully prepared to answer all of your questions.
CAMPUS VISIT PROGRAM
Visiting campus is important. It allows you to engage in the institutional culture, interact with students, and observe the environment. Team Harris has developed a robust campus visit program just for prospective students. When you arrive to Chicago Harris, a Team Harris member will greet you at the door. He/she will arrange your visit for you prior to your arrival. Visits include a casual coffee Q&A, a class visit with the student, a Harris building tour, and a meeting with the Director of Admissions. To arrange your visit with the Campus Visit Program, please email our Admissions Staff, or email a Team Harris member directly.
