Campus Tours
Daily Tours
When classes are in session, campus tours are scheduled Monday through Thursday during the morning and afternoon, Friday mornings and on select Saturdays at 10 a.m. Summer tour options vary.
Every campus tour provides an opportunity to meet with and hear from our Admissions staff and take a 90-minute walking tour of campus. Your tour will include visits to the Student Center, residence halls and rooms, main classroom buildings, Halle Library, the Olds Recreation Intramural building and other campus areas that interest you. Weekday morning tours include free lunch (September-April only), additional interaction with students and staff and typically concludes around 1 p.m.
Adviser appointments allow freshmen and transfer students to meet with an EMU admissions adviser and learn more about the admissions process. Our experienced advisers will meet one-on-one with you to:
- Review the EMU academic programs and majors you're considering. We'll show you which courses are required for a particular degree and how many credit hours are required.
- Discuss how your previous coursework will be evaluated at EMU once you apply.
- Share your next steps in being admitted and enrolled at EMU.
Appointments are available at various times.

Group Tours
Group tours are available for schools or educational community groups of 7 to 150 students in ninth grade and above. When classes are in session, group tours are offered on Monday through Friday at 10 a.m. Other dates and times can be considered but are not guaranteed. To request a group tour or to request additional information, please fill out our online group tours request form [DOC]. Due to high demand, group tour dates are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis and only one tour can be accommodated on available dates. Please request your visit date at least 3 weeks in advance to allow sufficient planning.
If your group consists of students younger than the 9th grade, we have limited, shortened visit opportunities available when scheduling permits. Contact visit.emu@emich.edu with your request.
Honors Tours
The Honors College holds information sessions and tours to showcase its features for highly-qualified and motivated EMU students. Prospective students and families will meet honors students, faculty, and staff. Tours include lunch in The Commons and visits to the Honors College's building and Downing Hall, one of the Honors residence halls.
