Emily Welty

Assistant Director of Admissions

Hi! My name is Emily Welty and I have been working in the Office of Admissions since 2005. I graduated from Mason in May 2005 with a B.A. in Communication with a concentration in Public Relations. I am the representative for the West, and will be traveling to Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and California.

As a student, I loved the feel of our beautiful campus and all the opportunities of being close to the Nation’s Capital. I would go to D.C. often to walk around the monuments, visit the museums, see concerts, and attend baseball, basketball, and ice hockey games. I was a very involved student at Mason; I was an active member of four honor societies, was a Resident Advisor for a year, and had a few jobs on campus, including an internship. I swam competitively for 16 years and spent my final four years competing as a member of Mason’s Women’s Swimming and Diving program. During my four years on the team, the women’s team won the CAA Conference Championships each year! That accomplishment became one of my favorite Mason memories.

Being one of the Assistant Directors of Admissions has provided me with so many great chances to meet prospective students and share the awesome opportunities that Mason has to offer! As a proud graduate, I feel very fortunate that I get to remain in touch with the university and the exciting campus life by representing my Alma Mater.

I wish you the best of luck with your college decision!
