Programs for Prospective Students

Full-Day Events

Purdue hosts full-day, on-campus visit programs during the fall and spring semesters. When registration is available, students who are on our mailing list will receive invitations and will be able to register online.

A Saturday with the Boilermakers

This Saturday morning on-campus program for high school students each September features an information fair, admissions sessions, and tours of the campus and residence halls. Participating students receive a complimentary ticket to that day's Purdue football game.

Fall Preview Days

During Fall Preview Days, high school students can attend an information fair, meet with representatives from Purdue's colleges and schools, tour the campus and residence halls, and enjoy a complimentary lunch in a student dining court. Fall Preview Days are offered on multiple days in October and early November.

Introducing Purdue

Introducing Purdue is open to all high school freshmen, sophomores, and juniors and offers the perfect opportunity to learn more about Purdue. Students who attend will have the chance to talk with academic advisors, tour the campus, visit the residence halls, and hear what current Purdue students are saying about life on campus. This program is offered on multiple days during the spring semester.

Daily Visits

Daily visits are available year-round four times each day, Monday through Friday, and include a presentation and student-guided walking tour. With some exceptions, daily visits last about 2.5 hours. During the school year, an abbreviated Daily Visit is available most Saturdays.
