imageAdmissions House (2008) The Assumption University Admissions House was built around 1912 as the home of Charles Persons and his family, renowned manufacturers of bicycle saddles. In 1980, the house was acquired by Assumption University to be used as the home of its president. Two Assumption presidents lived there, and in 2007, the University renovated the home to create an appropriate space for Enrollment Management, including the University’s Admissions and Financial Aid offices. The project included renovation of the 9,000-square-foot Persons mansion and the construction of a 6,000-square-foot addition in a compatible style. The accompanying three-car brick garage was adapted for use as a classroom and meeting space, and renamed the Carriage House.
