The campus visit is often the deciding factor for most students when selecting the right college.  The University of St. Thomas provides many opportunities for students to visit and learn about campus life and academics.  These programs will give you the chance to meet with current students, faculty, and staff members, tour the campus, attend mock classes, and even spend the night in our residence hall.  We hope to see you at one of our Preview Days and look forward to helping you take a closer look at UST.

Countdown to College

Are you starting to think about college, but not quite a senior?  Have you been attending college fairs and receiving information from unknown colleges or universities?

Countdown to College is a program specifically designed for juniors and younger to help you learn about the college recruitment process, how to make your college application stand out, and learn more about UST.  Even if you are considering schools other than UST, you will be given resources to help you find the best “fit” in a college/university.  We will perform skits, provide lunch and tours, and turn the tables to give you the opportunity to be an admissions counselor.
