Visit Campus | Admissions | Western Michigan University

In response to recent University announcements, daily campus tours are suspended in order to minimize interpersonal contact to slow the potential spread of COVID-19. When campus visits resume, they will likely be with modifications to keep our student ambassadors and guests safe. If you wish to register for a traditional in-person campus tour, please use the green button below. We will continue to monitor the situation and follow all state and federal guidelines.

If you're a prospective graduate or international student, please visit the corresponding website for details and assistance.

In the meantime, while physically being on campus is the best way to experience WMU and learn about what it means to be a Bronco a virtual visit is the next best thing! Until we are able to personally guide you around our beautiful campus, we invite you to experience our virtual options as an introduction to the WMU community.
