There’s no better way to know if Buena Vista University is the right place for you as a potential student than to visit campus. The Office of Admissions schedules campus visits for potential students, parents and their guests year-round.

If you are not a potential student, choose Plan a Group Tour or Plan a Business Meeting.

The Admissions Office suggests you do two things to get to know BVU:

  1. Visit Buena Vista University’s campus during a special visit day.
    Special visit days — like Fun Fridays and Blue & Gold Visit Days — help potential students get a feel for BVU’s campus life.

    Go to the Admissions site for the schedule of upcoming Events & Visit Days. You can also RSVP for these events on-line.

  2. Schedule a personalized campus visit.
    At BVU, campus visits aren’t just tours! The Admissions staff will also arrange for you to meet professors, sit in on an actual college class, eat on campus and even stay overnight.
