High school students and their families can get an early start on their college search with enhanced summer visits at the University of Mary Washington. Prospective students also can interview for a “Taking Flight” scholarship opportunity starting July 1.
This summer, UMW is offering three types of college campus visit experiences. Tours and info sessions are offered weekdays at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.; weekend tours are available on Saturdays at 9:30 and 11 a.m.; and summer enhanced visits are offered on July 11 and 20, and Aug. 10. The summer enhanced visit offers a more hands-on and specialized tour experience allowing students and their families to hear from academic leaders from the Colleges of Arts and Sciences, Business, and Education.
Summer college campus tours at UMW are designed to fit all schedules. Prospective students can sign up for preferred dates on the “Visit UMW” webpage.
For those who prefer a virtual option to get to know UMW, online interviews can provide the first opportunity for students to share what matters to them and get ahead on their application for admission. Plus, students who complete an application and an interview between July 1 and Feb. 1 are automatically considered for a “Taking Flight” scholarship ranging from $1,000 to $2,000. Read more.
