Visitation day events

Visitation day events provide you with an opportunity to interact with current students and representatives from UA's academic areas, learn the processes to apply for admission, financial aid, scholarships, and housing, as well as tour the campus.

Information sessions and tours

High school students are invited to an information session and campus tour, offered Monday through Friday. Weekday information sessions are conducted at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. by an Admissions representative, followed by a student-guided campus tour.  Programs are also available on select Saturdays.
