Here are some other ways to stay connected to campus this summer:
Campus Visits
ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ is offering small group campus visits with modified tours this summer. Students can take advantage of physical and virtual campus visit sessions with ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ student tour guides. The private sessions are offered Monday-Saturday and are limited to one family per tour guide. Masks are required inside and outside on the tours unless socially distant outside.
Campus tours include an information session led by an admissions counselor who will provide details about the admissions and financial aid process. Following the session, a student guide will lead the campus walking tour. Our student guides love telling their stories and answering questions, so a tour is a great opportunity to learn firsthand what it’s like to be a student at ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ.  to sign up for your physical or virtual campus visit today.
