Friday with Friends is for high school seniors interested in experiencing Friends University and learning how Friends can help with your college search. As a high school senior, you will have an opportunity to take a campus tour, visit with a professor, sit in on a class, connect with current students, meet your Admissions Counselor and enjoy lunch in our dining hall.

You will have the opportunity to audition for a scholarship if you are interested in fine arts and athletic coaches will be available to meet with those interested in sports. Parents and guests are welcome to join, and dress is casual.

If you prefer to have a one-on-one visit to Friends University, or you have already participated in a group day, sign up for an Individual Campus Visit.

During this day we can customize your visit to fit your special needs and concerns. Some of the things that you can do on an Individual Campus Visit include: Campus Tour, visit with Admissions Staff, Financial Aid and Faculty and sit in on a class.  If you are a senior you can visit with one of our coaches and audition for fine arts scholarship.

Sign up for this day and one of our Campus Visit Coordinators will contact you to finalize your visit!

Younglife / CSF Visit Day for 2016 has passed. We'll contact you about Younglife / CSF Visit Day 2017 if you have this option selected.

One of our most popular events is Junior Day, for high school juniors and other college-bound high school students. The day begins at 9 a.m. on May 7, 2018 with a welcome and scavenger hunt tour. You will sit in on a panel where current Friends University Students can answer any of your questions and parents will hear from the faculty panel.

There is no school in session on this day due to students enjoying their last day before finals begin. We take advantage of this by participating in their planned activities such as “Lunch on the Lawn” and outdoor games, including inflatables.

The official event ends after lunch but you may want to stick around listen to the jazz groups perform as well as play games and participate in activities with the current students. Sign up and come prepared and dressed for a fun, exciting day.
