The offices of admission and student financial planning are located in Horky House. The Admission Welcome Center is located in Old Centre.

Horky House was a private residence until Centre acquired it for admissions. It was built by Robert Russel Jr., the local master builder who also built Old Centre, the first building of the College. It was locally known as the Russel-Thomas House, for Russel and Jo Thomas, a transportation magnate, who lived in the house from 1859-88. The building is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
