Visit UWEC
A campus visit designed for you
You may have heard that visiting campus is the best way to know if it is the right fit for you — and we agree! But we also understand that not everyone is looking for the same thing on their visit. That is why we have designed a variety of visit options with you in mind. You can choose from one of our many visit options including a general campus visit, an academic program visit or even a virtual option like our virtual student panel.
