    The new Chesapeake Welcome Center is designed to serve as the front door to the Harford Experience. When completed, it will house Admissions, Workforce and Continuing Education, Financial Aid, Registration, Advising, and the Cashier; provide convenient parking; and become a central entrance point for prospective students, campus tours, testing, enrollment events, and registration—a truly inviting space for Future Fighting Owls!

    For the greater Harford County community, the Chesapeake Welcome Center will be a place to gather for conference, meetings, art openings, and performances. Visitors will be welcomed into a vibrant campus space that reflects the future of the College and the County.
