Accompanying guests of prospective students are welcome to explore campus, visit the Breen Student Union, or relax in the Office of Admissions while prospective students are interviewing or attending a class.
Can I meet with a varsity coach during my visit? Yes, our coaches love to meet prospective athletes! To schedule an athletic visit, email Jordyn Cole, Athletic Recruiting and Event Coordinator, with your sport of interest.
Is my visit personalized for me and my family or are we part of a group? Admissions interviews, question-and-answer sessions, and faculty visits are individual meetings between you/your accompanying guests and the respective faculty/staff member. Walking campus tours, financial aid sessions, classroom visits, and lunch may include multiple guests.
How will I navigate campus on the day of my visit? Our buildings are centrally located, and campus is easily walkable. If you aren’t certain where you need to go next, just ask someone! Our faculty, staff, and students are happy to help. We recommend reviewing our campus map prior to your visit to get a basic understanding of where buildings are located. You’ll also receive a paper copy of our campus map in your packet when you check in for your visit. Please note: Our campus is divided by Wolf Creek into upper and lower campus. Visitors typically only have appointments on upper campus.
Do I need to bring anything with me? If you are completing an admissions interview, we recommend bringing a resume for your own reference while meeting with your admissions counselor. If you are going on a walking campus tour, please make sure that you are dressed appropriately for the weather.
