About Your Tour

Each campus visit is broken into two parts – an information session and a campus tour led by a student tour guide. The information session covers what it's like to be a part of the Charger Nation. It provides you the opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the admissions process, financial aid, scholarships, student life, and housing.

The student-led tour, featuring personal insight from your tour guide, allows you to explore our beautiful 505-acre campus with stops at one of our suite-style residence halls, Salmon Library, the University Fitness Center, and Charger Union. You will also have the opportunity to view a typical classroom.

Tips for Making Your Visit Successful

  • Register at least 1-2 weeks in advance, especially if you are requesting additional appointments.

If you are interested in meeting with the department of your academic area of interest, please make this request at the time of your campus visit registration. Students interested in academic programs within the College of Engineering and College of Science will automatically be registered to attend an information session at 12 pm on the date of their visit. 

Additional appointments are scheduled according to availability. The Office of Admissions may not be able to accommodate last-minute requests. Registrations received within 48 hours of the requested visit day may not have the ability for additional appointments. 

  • We ask that students bring no more than two guests with them on the tour.
  • Plan to arrive on campus 10-15 minutes before 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 parking 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.
  • If you need accessibility accommodations, please contact the Admissions Office, at visit@uah.edu or 256.824.2773 at least a week before your visit, and our office will be happy to assist.
