Individual Student Visits

Schedule a Visit (but don't forget to call 307-766-4075 too if it is short notice!)

During your time on campus, you will have the opportunity to live the college life of a Poke!

  • Connect with our dynamic professors: walk through your preferred department and meet with the men and women who turn the empty classrooms into a true educational experience 
  • Ask questions of our knowledgeable Admissions staff: note important dates and deadlines, talk money, discover the town of Laramie, learn about student organizations, and more- these guys know it all
  • Tour campus: learn a little about our history as you see the most popular places on the west campus, including the residence halls and Union, with a current student as you discover why he or she chose UW
  • Eat a meal in Washakie Dining Center: immerse yourself in college as you get a taste of what's to come
  • BECOME A PART OF THE UW TRADITION!

 

We arrange individual visits Monday-Friday ONLY. Visits usually begin at 9, 10, 11, 12, or 1 though we recommend you come to campus 1/2 hour early to park and check in. Campus tours depart from Knight 106 at 11 and 2 during the school year and summer and at 11 only during other academic breaks.

Please note that we are not able to arrange appointments with NCAA D-1 athletic teams. You are welcome to contact the coaches on your own in conjunction with your planned trip to campus. See "Athletics Dept." at www.wyomingathletics.com.

Take advantage of your trip to Laramie and plan time to explore local hiking, biking, climbing, and skiing opportunities; shop our historic downtown as you enjoy local coffee shops and restaurants; or perhaps take a leisurely drive over the Snowy Range or over to the Vedauwoo rock formations east of Laramie.
