Experience Saint Francis: Fall 2026 Campus Visit Opportunities

A college website can introduce you to academic programs, student life, and campus resources- but there is no substitute for experiencing a university in person.

Because a campus visit is one of the most important steps in the college search, Saint Francis University is offering a variety of opportunities throughout the Fall 2026 semester. Prospective students and their families can choose the date and experience that best fit their interests and schedules, including full open houses, specialty events, and personalized weekday visits.

Fall Open Houses

Saint Francis University's fall open houses provide a comprehensive introduction to the University's mission, academic programs, and welcoming campus community. Visitors can meet faculty, explore campus with a student ambassador, learn about student life and support services, and enjoy a campus dining experience.

Fall open houses will be held:

• Saturday, October 31, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
• Wednesday, November 11, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
• Saturday, November 14, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Specialty Visit Experiences

Students with particular academic or athletic interests can also participate in visit opportunities designed especially for them.

Health Science Discovery Day - Saturday, September 26, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Students interested in healthcare careers can explore programs such as Physician Assistant Sciences, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Exercise Science, and Nursing. Interactive sessions and conversations with faculty and current students will provide an inside look at preparing for a meaningful career in the health sciences.

Athletic Open House - Saturday, October 17, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Prospective student-athletes can connect with coaches and current student-athletes, tour athletic facilities, learn about the recruiting process, and explore the academic and student-support resources available at SFU. The event is open to all high school juniors and seniors, regardless of their current level of athletic interest.

Visit on a Day That Works for You

Students who cannot attend a scheduled event, or who prefer a more personalized experience, can arrange an individual campus visit Monday through Friday, and select Saturdays. Morning and afternoon options are available.

These half-day visits include an introduction to SFU's academic programs, a campus tour, a complimentary lunch, and a meeting with an enrollment advisor. Individual virtual visits are also available for students and families who would like to connect with Saint Francis from a distance.

Whether you attend an open house, join a specialty event, or schedule an individual appointment, a visit offers the chance to picture yourself as part of the Saint Francis community. Walk the campus, meet the people who make SFU special, and explore opportunities to get involved through esports, band, athletics, campus ministry, student organizations, service, and more.
