Visiting Campus

A campus visit will help you know if UW-La Crosse is the right fit for your college experience! We offer many visit options to accommodate your schedule.

Campus Close-Ups

Campus Close-Ups give you the opportunity to learn more about UW-La Crosse, including our academic programs, financial aid, and the admissions process. Members of the Vanguard organization lead a panel discussion about campus life, and the day concludes with a one-hour walking tour of campus led by a current student. The only cost to you for attending Campus Close-Up is lunch. Click here to see a sample agenda for the day. Make a reservation online.main_nite

Group Information Sessions

Group Information Sessions are one-hour presentations by an admissions counselor designed to give an overview of UW-L and the new freshman admissions process. These sessions are followed by a one-hour walking tour of campus, led by a member of the Vanguard organization. Group Information Sessions are available on selected dates during the fall and spring semesters. Make a reservation online. Please note: Summer Group Information Sessions begin July 1.

Visit options fill quickly during busy campus visit seasons (early-April, late-July, and August) and reservations should be made at least two weeks in advance.

Campus Tours

Campus tours, lasting approximately one hour and led by a member of the Vanguard organization, are available  at 11:00am and 2:15pm, Monday through Friday, during the school year while classes are in session. During the summer session, tours are offered at 11:00am only, Monday through Friday.  Admissions counselors are available to answer questions at the conclusion of your tour.

Individual Appointments for New Freshmen

Individual appointments with admissions counselors are available from September through June and are designed for prospective students who are unable to attend a Campus Close-Up or a Group Information Session.  We also encourage you to go on a campus tour during your visit to campus. Make a reservation online.

Transfer Student Appointments

Individual appointments with a transfer admission counselor are recommended for prospective transfer students. (Prospective students are students who have not applied and have not been accepted for admission.)  Meeting will include information about the application process and admission guidelines. Make a reservation online.

Admitted transfer students who have questions regarding registration and academic advising are encouraged to contact the Dean's Office for the College to which they are assigned.  (See your admission letter if you are unsure.)  Please do not schedule an individual appointment to meet with a transfer admission counselor.  Visit the Admitted Transfer Students webpage for a listing of College contacts.

Special School/Group Visits

Special school/group visits and tours should be scheduled through the Admissions Office by calling (608) 785-8939.

We encourage you to visit us at least once, and we hope to see you on campus soon!
