This is that time of the year when millions of high school seniors sprint home after school hoping to find a super thick envelope stuffed into the mailbox from the dream college that they’ve applied to, or in some cases, ANY college they’ve applied to. This year, students who applied and have been accepted by Skidmore College, a small liberal arts college located in Upstate NY, will find something slightly different in their mailbox.
Skidmore College is giving their accepted candidates letter a huge makeover by using an immersive 360VR video as part of the congratulatory acceptance letter. Each envelop comes packed with a VR cardboard viewer along with a link that directs them to a 360° video, giving the new college student a sneak peek into what their college experience during the Fall will look like.
