For prospective students and their families, we offer a choice of activities:
Take a Van Tour
Enjoy a 45-minute guided tour of campus, conducted entirely in our air-conditioned tour van by a student University Ambassador. This tour provides all of the information provided on the walking tour, but in half the time.
Take a Walking Tour
A student University Ambassador conducts a 90-minute guided outdoor tour of campus. (You’re welcome to visit classroom buildings, libraries and other facilities at your leisure after the tour.) Please wear comfortable shoes, dress with our unpredictable Florida weather in mind, and expect some sloping terrain on your tour. Walking tours may be cancelled in case of severe weather.
Attend an Admission Information Session
A great way to learn all about admission to FSU. An FSU Admission officer conducts this 45-minute answer-packed session covering the application process, admission requirements and more. Available to all prospective students and families but especially valuable for high school juniors and their parents.
Visit a Residence Hall
Our driving tour of campus includes an exterior look at each undergraduate residence hall and information about floor plans, special programs and more... but a closer look is also available most afternoons during regular academic terms.
