• What do I bring?

  The entirety of the event takes place outside. As it is still summertime and there will be lots of walking involved, we recommend sunscreen, hats, and comfortable shoes. We will also have water stations located throughout, so bring your reusable water bottle if you have one!

  Additionally, we encourage you to either print out or screenshot your fall schedule so that you can identify which buildings your classes are in while on the campus tour.
