Campus Visits: Preview Days
Many universities invite applicants to campus for a preview day. This is a great opportunity for prospective students to learn about the school, and experience the excitement of campus. Of course, this is a promotional event, so while fun, it might not give you the authentic experience of visiting on a regular school day.

Check your email inboxes for invitations from the schools, or visit their websites to sign up.

Some examples:
Indiana University: Senior Week (Sept. 21-25)
Ohio State University (Sept 18 & Oct. 3)
University of Richmond (Sept. 4)
University of Miami (Aug. 29, Sept. 9, Oct. 4)
Vanderbilt’s PreVU (Sept. 11 & Oct. 12)

Colorado School of Mines
Campus visit, June 2026
Colorado School of Mines is a hidden gem, with strong engineering programs, as well as other STEM majors, providing direct career pathways into the Colorado economy. Golden is an adorable town, with an authentic western history and many cute shops and delicious restaurants. Laden with outdoor opportunities, it’s located along a river and with the Rocky Mountains in the distance. While the Coors corporate headquarters moved to Chicago in 2019, the historic brewery remains in Golden. There is a lot of construction across campus, a sign of investment and growth.
