High school, community college and other prospective students are invited to catch a glimpse of campus life when The University of Mississippi opens its doors March 18 for Spring Visit Day. It provides a way for students to get a look at several areas of the University in a short amount of time. Events begin with registration at 8 a.m. at the welcome tent on the Student Union plaza. Campus tours are available, and other activities continue throughout the day. Students visit with representatives from financial aid, admissions, housing and the Academic Support Center.
Participants also attend a student life fair to learn how to get involved in campus organizations.
Representatives help answer questions. An overview of the day's activities is given. Students visit with representatives from two programs of their choice. Those auditioning for scholarships in art, band, music or theatre arts report to the respective building of each area. Participants enjoy complimentary lunch and musical entertainment.
