A Visit Is Worth a Thousand Words
We can talk to you all day about the quality of Valpo’s academic programs, the commitment of our faculty to your success, or the way you’ll feel right at home as soon as you get to campus. But there’s nothing like chatting with current staff and students and taking a guided tour to really get to know Valpo. On-Campus visits to Valparaiso University are available for high school seniors and transfer students during the Fall Semester; registration is required. Others may join us on a virtual visit.

Explore Engineering
Did you know Valpo’s Undergraduate Engineering Program has been recognized by U.S. News & World Report as one of the top in our nation?
We hosted a virtual visit day in October to show off this outstanding college. And there are other virtual opportunities to visit Valpo.
But if you’ve not been to campus yet, a personal visit is a great way to experience Valpo Engineering. You’ll chat with an admission counselor and take a campus tour that walks through our engineering facilities & interactive labs. And Valpo’s faculty would love to meet with you — if not in person, then virtually! Email Assistant Dean Laura Sanders to set up this faculty conversation (laura.sanders@valpo.edu).
Introduction to Valpo Day for H.S. Seniors & Transfer Students
We offered high school seniors and transfer students an Introduction to Valpo Day on October 17. There were two options on this day, and to meet our state’s COVID-19 guidelines, enrollment was limited and registration required. There are no other on-campus events like this schedule for the Fall Semester, so please schedule a personal visit from this visit program’s calendar options which include select Saturdays.
We hope to offer an event for underclassmen in the Spring Semester.
Admitted Student Days
Get to know Valpo just a little bit better before you commit. You’ll explore your academic college and attend sessions specific to your major. After lunch with current students, you’ll meet with admissions to talk about financial aid and campus resources. And we’ll have sessions and workshops for your parents, too. Our Admitted Student Days, which are hosted in the Spring Semester, have not yet been scheduled as we wait to see how COVID-19 may influence our visit programs.
Directions and Accommodations
It’s easy to get to Valpo, but sometimes hard to leave. We’re an easy drive from Chicago, and you’ll find lots to do once you’re here. Use these links to plan your visit:
