Campus Visits

Visit Maryville College and see why we're considered one of the South's best liberal arts colleges. The students, faculty, and staff welcome visitors to the campus. Visitors should contact the Office of Admissions a minimum of two weeks in advance to request a visit with an overnight stay (available Sunday-Thursday nights during fall, J-term, and spring semesters); a minimum of three days in advance of a one-day visit.

Prospective students are encouraged to spend the night in a residence hall, attend classes, work out in the Fitness Center, take a hike in the College Woods, and find out what it's like to be a Maryville student. Overnight stays are offered to current high school seniors and are limited to Sunday through Thursday evenings during the fall, j-term, or spring semesters.

We're Open!

The Office of Admissions is open Monday - Friday from 8:00 am - 5:00 pm. and on most Saturdays during the Academic Year (Sept-May) from 9:00 am to 12:00 noon.  Write, call, fax, or e-mail your request for a visit to:
