What to Expect at Open House

One day. Three dimensions: education, campus and community.

  • Explore your program: Talk with professors and current students about the programs you’re considering, and discover where your interests could lead.
  • Meet your future community: At Bishop’s, you’re seen, known and challenged to grow. Meet the students, professors and staff who make Bishop’s what it is.
  • See where you’ll live and learn: Tour our classrooms, residences and student spaces, and get a feel for the Gaiter lifestyle.
  • Get answers: Discover our student services and how we support you at every step.
  • Enjoy lunch on us: You and your guests get a free meal at Dewhurst Dining Hall, the Purple Pod or the Library Café.
  • Go deeper: Attend an afternoon session on academics, student life and what makes Bishop’s different.

You don’t need to have everything figured out. You just need to be curious.
