Online Campus Visit Registration Form
Choosing the right university can be a tough decision. One of the best ways to learn about Tennessee Tech is to visit the campus. Visitors can see first-hand why Tennessee Tech ranked among the "top public universities in the South" by U.S. News and World Report in the 2009 edition of America's Best Colleges and as one of the "Best in the Southeast" by The Princeton Review.
During fall, spring and summer semesters, Tennessee Tech offers scheduled campus visits starting at both 9 a.m. CST and 12 noon CST each weekday (summer afternoon visits start at 11:45 a.m.). Plan to be on campus for about four and a half hours for the entire visit. Parents and family are welcome to come and visit the campus with their student.
While on campus, you'll be a VIP visitor. You’ll have an opportunity to talk with an admissions counselor who can help you navigate the oceans of information about topics ranging from entrance requirements to student life.
A one-hour walk around the campus, led by our Student Admissions Representatives, allows you to explore the campus and get a student's perspective of what it is like to be a student at Tennessee Tech!
Based on the information that you give us in your reservation, we'll attempt to schedule a short meeting with a departmental representative from your intended major.
Finally, you’ll have a chance to eat lunch on campus*, tour the residence halls (dorms), and receive a free Tennessee Tech t-shirt.
* You may visit our dining facilities at your convenience; one free pass provided per prospective student; $6 for each guest in the MarketPlace; cost will vary in Swoops Food Court.
** Please schedule your visit as soon as possible since meeting space is limited. If you are planning a visit in October, please reserve your session soon and plan on visiting with several other families due to students' Fall Breaks
