University and Gies Business Visit Options

We offer on-campus and virtual visit programs for prospective first-year and off-campus transfer students. High school seniors who were admitted into another major/program on campus and current UIUC students can visit our intercollegiate transfer (ICT) information page to learn more about the transfer process. 

First-Year Student Visits 

First-year students can participate in regular visit programs or larger Orange and Blue Day open houses. Both can include campus/Gies tours and a meeting with admissions staff. Learn more about these two options through the University Admissions first-year visit web page.

For regular visit programs, we recommend attending a morning University Admissions presentation and campus tour, and then joining us for a Gies information session and facility tour in the afternoon. Orange and Blue Days already have that scheduled format, so no worries there!

On-Campus Options

We welcome visitors to Gies Business and offer regular meetings on most Mondays and Fridays. If you plan to attend a University Admissions presentation and campus tour, please note that you'll need a separate registration. Explore in-person visit options by date.


  • Mondays: Join us for the Gies Business meeting at 1:30 PM, following the University Admissions presentation at 10:00 AM.
  • Fridays: Join us for the Gies Business meeting at 11:00 AM, before the University Admissions presentation at 1:00 PM.
Virtual Options

Virtual visits will be on Wednesday, June 14, July 12, and August 9 at 4 pm CT. Register here.
