Visiting
Union - Weekday Campus Visit
We’re
happy that you’re taking a look at Virginia Union University,
one of the nation’s premier historical black private,
Christian, liberal arts, progressive universities. We provide
an environment where students can develop academically, socially,
and spiritually. Let us show you why VUU is our favorite university.
To help you start planning your visit, here’s a preview
of what you can see and do while you’re here, along
with some scheduling suggestions to help you get the most
out of your visit.
What
would you like to do?
Weekday
Information Session. Planning to attend an information
session is a great way to learn all about Virginia Union University.
A VUU Admissions Counselor conducts this 30-minute (depending
on visiting party size) packed session covering the history
of VUU, the application and admission requirements/process,
as well as academic and social opportunities. This session
also allows for accepted students to get all their important
questions answered before enrolling. Although our sessions
are available to all prospective students, our counselors
find it especially valuable for high school juniors and seniors.
Weekday
Student Lead Walking Tour. The best way to visualize
yourself as a prospective panther is to speak with a current
student about their experience while on a 30-minute (depending
on visiting party size) guided walking tour of the campus.
Highlights may include the L. Douglas Wilder Library, VUU
Museum, student center, academic facilities and residence
halls.
Panther
Schedule Suggestions
Listed
below are a few panther suggestions to prepare you for scheduling
a campus visit. Please review tips before submitting your
request.
- Schedule
your visit as least two weeks in advance. Tour space can
be limited, so you’ll want to have a few possible
visit dates in mind before submitting your request.
- The
best time to see VUU is when classes are in session, residence
halls are open, and all our faculty, staff, and students
are available to answer your questions. The Undergraduate
Office of Admissions will be glad to document your visit
for your high school’s attendance office.
- If
you are planning to visit more than one college campus,
please be sure to allow enough time between visits.
- To
avoid crowds, schedule not to visit during your local school
holiday. The Admissions Office is likely to be much busier
on those days.
- Some
visit activities are unavailable during semester breaks,
final exam weeks, spring break or when special campus events
are taking place.
