A campus visit helps you find a place that fits you.
Meet future colleagues and professors and learn more about how our supportive campus environment will meet your academic and personal needs.
Our recommendations below will help you make the most of your visit.
Part 1: Your department
Start by contacting your department of interest to request an appointment. Try to schedule time with faculty in your area of interest first because of their varied time commitments for teaching and advising.
