GET TO KNOW CAMPUS
We are excited to offer in-person visits and virtual visit opportunities (which include a virtual tour and one-one-one counselor meeting), academic sessions, and virtual events. We know experiencing campus, whether it’s in-person or virtually, is one of the most important things you can do in your college search and look forward to meeting you soon.
Immediately after entering campus, I could feel the close-knit community embodied through the surrounding greenery and towering evergreens scattered throughout the campus... PLU's campus feels like home.

In-person visits require an RSVP at least 2 days in advance and are limited to 1 student and up to 3 guests from the same household per tour time. We cannot accommodate walk-in requests. A campus visit automatically includes:
- A campus tour lead by a current student
- A one-on-one meeting with an Admission Counselor
While on campus we enforce strict mask-wearing, proper physical distancing, and the buildings you enter are limited (for example, you will not see inside a residence hall). If a tour time is not available on a day you are in our area, you are always welcome to walk campus on your own using our self-guided tour
Virtual Campus Visit:
- Join a current student as they guide you through a virtual tour of campus followed by a 30-45 minute one-on-one meeting with one of our Admission Counselors to talk more about PLU.
Transfer Information Sessions:
- Join a 30-45 minute webinar hosted by one of our Transfer Admission Counselors to talk more about PLU with a specific focus on the transfer process, with allowed Q&A time at the end of each session.
Virtual Campus Visit:

Transfer students:
Please note all official transcript evaluations are completed during the admission application process and cannot be done during a campus visit. Email your transfer admission counselor for more questions about transferable classes and unofficial transcript reviews. If you attend a local Washington Community College you can see a variety of 2-year transfer guides here. We also offer an interactive transfer guide any student may use to see what classes have transferred to PLU in the past from various colleges.
