University and Gies Business Visit Options
We offer on-campus and virtual visit programs for prospective first-year and off-campus transfer students. High school seniors who were admitted into another major/program on campus and current UIUC students can visit our intercollegiate transfer (ICT) information page to learn more about the transfer process.
First-Year Student Visits
First-year students can participate in regular visit programs or larger Orange and Blue Day open houses. Both can include campus/Gies tours and a meeting with admissions staff. Learn more about these two options through the University Admissions first-year visit web page.
For regular visit programs, we recommend attending a morning University Admissions presentation and campus tour, and then joining us for a Gies information session and facility tour in the afternoon. Orange and Blue Days already have that scheduled format, so no worries there!
If you plan to attend a University Admissions presentation and campus tour (UIUC Experience and Campus Tour), please note that you'll need a separate registration. Explore in-person visit options by date.
Throughout summer 2024, our Gies Business meeting will be at 2:00 pm on most Mondays and Fridays. We encourage visitors to register for a 10:00 am visit with University Admissions (Illinois Experience and Campus Tour).
Transfer Student Visits
Off-campus transfer students can participate in regular visit programs or larger Orange and Blue Day open houses. Both can include opportunities to tour campus/Gies facilities and to meet with Gies admissions staff. You can learn more about options through the University Admissions transfer visit web page.
On-Campus Options
