We offer tours daily, Monday-Friday at 12pm and 4pm (excluding holidays).

If you arrive before our tour, grab a quick drink or snack at the Smoothie King located in the lobby. Restrooms are also available.
Groups of 10 or fewer do not need to sign up for a tour in advance; simply meet a Housing staff member on the 2nd floor lobby of the Recreation and Wellness Center a few minutes before the tour time. Housing and Residence Life staff will be on hand to greet you and answer questions prior to the tour. Large groups (10+) should fill out the Special Tours form.
The 12pm and 4pm tours will show at least one style of residence hall room. Currently we are showing shared rooms in the Hercules Community and the Libra Community. Tours given by the Office of Admissions (10am and 2pm) direct visitors to the Recreation and Wellness Center afterwards so they can then go on the housing tour.
