On-Campus Tours
Prospective students and guests can register for a tour of campus and meetings with an Admissions Counselor and Financial Aid representative offered most Mondays and Fridays.
Please note the registration deadline is two days before the tour. Tours will be approximately 90 minutes. Please wear your walking shoes, bring a bottle of water, and be prepared for rain during the spring and summer months.
Chat With an Admissions Counselor
We know you have unique questions, and we have dedicated counselors to answer them all! Whether you are a high school student or a college student considering transferring, Admissions Counselors are available for virtual chats and portfolio reviews. Use this time to discuss the application requirements, what’s needed in your portfolio, and the transferability of earned college credits. These 1:1 sessions are available in 30-minute time slots.

We are able to provide small group tours, as well as virtual individual and group presentations.
