Campus Tours and Housing Tours

Beautiful, sunny, and full of opportunity! Let our Student Ambassadors show you around our slice of California. As you peek into classrooms, check out our dining commons and recreational facilities, you will see that our campus offers our students state-of-the-art learning spaces as well as a beautiful place to call home. Select Housing Tours or Campus Tour during your preferred time slot to register.

We have various opportunities throughout the day that do not require pre-registration. This includes the Academic Department, Campus Resource and Student Organization Fair, Chatting with an Admission Counselor, and walking around our various facilities. Take this time between sessions to chat with our current students, admission counselors, faculty, and staff to see how they can support your time at SCU. You can see a full list of these opportunities on the Open House website. Don't forget to take a picture with Bucky the Bronco!
