Arrange a Visit
We are delighted you have decided to visit campus! The best time to visit is during the week, while classes are in session. The Office of Admission is open year-round Monday through Friday and some Saturdays. Start scheduling your visit by picking a day and then you can give us a little information about yourself and select the various components of your visit.
If you are requesting a class visit as a part of your campus visit you must register at least five days in advance. After online registration closes, visits without a class visit component can be arranged by calling our office at 253.879.3211 or 800.396.7191. Please note that interviews are available for juniors, seniors, and transfer students.
If you are an organization or school wishing to bring a group of students to campus for a tour, please call Stephanie Knottingham at 253-879-3989 to schedule. Group visits are available on a limited basis during most months of the academic year. Group visits must be scheduled at least three weeks in advance.
