Visit UAH

From our world-class research facilities to student clubs and organizations seemingly covering every interest you can imagine, everybody has the opportunity to pursue their passions at UAH. But only a visit to our campus in Huntsville, Alabama – a vibrant Southern town that’s been designated as one of the top cities to live in the U.S. – can give you the full picture of what UAH has to offer. Guided by those who know UAH best – our current students – campus tours offer visitors a peek into what makes UAH the perfect place to live and learn.

Weekday Campus Tours

UAH campus tours are offered Monday-Friday. During your visit, you’ll get the inside scoop on what it’s like to be a part of Charger Nation and have the opportunity to ask questions about the admissions process, financial aid and scholarships, student life, and housing.

Then it’s time to explore our beautiful campus! Featuring personal insight from a UAH student tour guide, visitors get to explore our suite-style residence halls, the Salmon Library, the University Fitness Center, the Charger Union, and a typical classroom.

Tour Scheduling

Campus tours are offered Monday through Friday at 10:00 am and 1:00 pm.

  • Register at least 1-2 weeks in advance, especially if you are requesting additional appointments.
  • Campus Visits typically last for two hours. If you request any additional appointments, each would add 30 minutes to an hour to your visit. You may request an appointment with other campus departments, but please note, they are not guaranteed for the day of your visit and may be virtual.
  • Plan to arrive on campus 10-15 minutes prior to your scheduled visit to allow time for check-in and parking.
  • Once you arrive at our Student Services Building, park in our visitor parking area and bring your license plate number inside to check-in and receive a pass.
  • Wear comfortable shoes and clothes as your visit will include a walking tour of campus. Make sure to bring anything you would need in the case of inclement weather.
  • Please indicate on the registration form if you are in need of accessibility accommodations, and our office will be happy to assist.

Events for Prospective Students

Look Up Events

On my campus visit, the tour guides showed me an honest look at what it’s like to be a student at UAH. When I saw the real student experience here, I knew it was where I wanted to be.
