Undergraduate Visit
Prospective Students
Prospective students are those who are not currently in the admission process; freshman, sophomores, and juniors in high school or prospective transfer students. If you are a student who has not ever visited campus before, we recommend setting up a Campus Visit. The UIUC Experience and Campus Tour will feature a presentation by admissions, a student panel, and a walking tour of campus. You’ll then have time for lunch on your own before meeting with us to learn more about Animal Sciences and our college with a College of ACES visit. Our advisors will meet you along with staff from the College of ACES to answer any questions you might have. To do both the campus tour and the Animal Science/ACES visit, you’ll need to select both options from the Campus Visit menu.
