Open House
We invite you to attend an Open House event and see if Western is the right place for you.
If you’re considering Western, it may be because you’ve heard that 9 out of 10 graduates are employed in jobs they like*. Or that 92% of graduates who are working full time have a job related to their degree*.
Before our graduates became the success stories they are today, they were everyday students on a beautiful campus in Kalamazoo, Michigan. They made friends for life, spent time with professors who gave them a love of learning, and developed the practical skills they needed to get started on their chosen path.
Experience life as a Bronco
You set your own agenda for the day, and while you’re here, you can:
- Take a student-led tour of our campus and residence halls.
- Discover the ins and outs of financial aid that could make your dreams of attending WMU a reality.
- Explore prospective majors by meeting with academic college representatives and students from different programs.
- Enjoy a complimentary lunch in a campus dining center.
- Learn about the student support services that will help you thrive.
- Ask every tough question you’ve ever had about WMU or college in general.
So mark your calendars and get ready to experience a day tailor-made just for you at Western Michigan University. We can't wait to welcome you to campus!

Past attendees share thoughts about the Open House
"I was very impressed with the business college tour and break out sessions. It was nice to have students describe the internships, study abroad and organizations they are involved in. Everyone was so friendly."
I liked having the personal/casual sit down with students from the same program as me. It felt less pressure and more personal.
"The tour we were given by three of the interior design students was excellent! They did a great job with the tour, explaining everything about the program, and answering any questions."
