Group Tour Request

    Thank you for your interest in bringing a group to visit Appalachian through the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. We offer group visits for groups of students in grades 10, 11 and 12 only, as well as prospective transfer students. We ask that this request is submitted at least four weeks in advance of the desired visit date. We will contact you within five-to-seven business days to coordinate and confirm your visit details and logistics.

    Additional special programming may be requested, but is not guaranteed. Due to spacing and availability, we can accommodate up to 50 student guests and their chaperones for a walking tour. We require 1 chaperone per 12 students. Requests with more than 50 students will be denied in an effort to provide the best and most comprehensive experience to prospective students. 

    If you have any questions, please reach out to visitor@appstate.edu. 
    If you are interested in a virtual presentations hosted by an admissions counselor instead, please contact them directly.  https://admissions.appstate.edu/connect-us
