Academic Preview Days

Our programs are distinct—just like you.

Check them out for yourself while meeting with current students, faculty, and alumni. Spend the day exploring our innovative facilities and our hands-on approach to education. Participants will also take part in a campus tour, enjoy lunch in the dining hall, and have the opportunity to meet with admission and financial aid counselors. We think you’ll like what you see, but you don’t have to take our word for it. Discover why our students call this place home. 

Because preview days have a limited capacity and are extremely popular, make sure you are fully committed to attending the event before you register. Each preview day will take place in person on our campus.

Pre-Veterinary Medicine, Wildlife Biology, and Wildlife Rehabilitation

Students interested in our Wildlife Biology, Wildlife Rehabilitation, or Pre-Veterinary Medicine programs will meet faculty and current students, explore the Elk Valley Preserve and Field Station, tour the May Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, and learn about potential careers as animal keepers, rehabilitators, veterinarians, wildlife directors, animal service officers, and educators.
