Visit Options at Transylvania

We are delighted that you plan to visit Transy, and we want your experience to be the best that it can be. Pictures can show you our beautiful buildings and well-manicured lawns, but they only tell part of the story. Visiting campus is the only way to get a true feel for the congenial spirit of our campus.

Overnight Visits

Many students wish to take advantage of our overnight visit program. An overnight will provide you with the best overall view of Transylvania because you can experience both the academic and social sides of campus life. We have a group of students, Admissions Ambassadors, who have an extra bed in their room just for you—no sleeping on the floor at Transy!

Space is limited, so we ask that you speak directly with our campus visit coordinator to schedule your overnight experience. She can be reached at (800) 872-6798 or (859) 233-8242.

For 2011-12, we offer overnight visits on the following dates:
September 20, 29
October 9, 13, 20, 30
November 10, 22
December 1
January: 12, 24, 29
February: 2
March: 1, 8 (Senior Visit Day), 20, 27
