Entry Detail
Planning Your Tour:
"While Minnesota summers are very beautiful, weather can always be unpredictable," says Alyssa Anderson, a student supervisor at U of M's Freshman Admissions Welcome Center, who recommends checking the forecast and dressing appropriately. "Be sure to grab your umbrella or pack your sunscreen, and always wear comfortable walking shoes."
"Spending a day or two exploring the Minneapolis/St. Paul area can really show you what our community has to offer," suggests Devin Kling, a student tour guide. Consider renting one of the Nice Ride bikes--rental bicycles available to students and visitors on campus--to discover the variety of neighborhoods, restaurants, and cultural events available nearby to our students at the U of M. You could also check out an exhibit one of the area's 50+ museums, catch a show at the Guthrie Theater, shop at the Mall of America, and so much more!
Calling the Office of Admissions VISITLINE (612-625-0000 or 1-800-752-1000) to discuss our array of visit options is a great start to planning your unique campus visit and discovering why the U of M is a great fit for you!
"You can read all about the U of M online, but it doesn't compare to experiencing our exciting and beautiful Big 10 campus in person," says Meagan Fleming, a student tour guide.
