UW-Eau Claire 2011-2012 Fall/Spring Tour Information
The tour schedule is Monday through Friday at 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. throughout the year and some Saturdays.
The tour lasts about one hour plus ½ hour for housing tour (approximately 15 minutes after campus tour). Recommend at least two-week advance reservation--more time if hoping to tour on a non-school day (e.g., teacher's conference).
Prospective students can enhance a campus tour through a variety of additional visit opportunities. They are:
- Focus Presentations, one-hour in length, are led by an admissions counselor Monday through Friday. These sessions provide general information about the university, including academic programs, the admission process, financial aid, scholarships and campus life. An opportunity to discuss individual concerns before or after the presentation is possible.
- Saturday Spotlights are half-day programs designed to provide prospective students and their families with a personalized introduction to the university. They include a group presentation that emphasizes the admission process, academic programs, financial aid, housing and career services; a student panel focusing on student life; and small group tours of lower campus. Optional housing tours are available following the programs.
- One-on-one meeting with a department representative. Appointments can be scheduled with a faculty member or athletic coach for questions a prospective student may have.
- Recreation tours are available Monday through Friday at 1:00 p.m. to check out the Recreation Center, climbing wall, ropes course, fitness center, gyms and more.
