Every March, accepted students only are invited to Accepted Students Day.
Attend "mini classes" (38 to choose from!) tour campus, and meet with representatives of many campus organizations. It's a great way to spend a Saturday (and get a free lunch). Bring your parents or some friends! Remember - this is only for accepted students.
If you’ve been dreaming about Wilkes, we invite you to immerse yourself in college life at a Colonel Overnight exclusively for accepted students. Go to classes, eat in the dining hall, get to know other future Colonels, and spend the night in a residence hall with a student host.
- Thursday, Feb. 21, to Friday, Feb. 22
- Friday, March 22, to Saturday, March 23 (also Accepted Students Day)
- Tuesday, April 9, to Wednesday, April 10

Why wait and worry about whether you’ll get into the school of your choice? If you’re a high school senior or transfer student, you don’t have to. Complete an online application and schedule a personalized visit. Bring all supporting documents with you, and we’ll have a decision ready by the time you finish the campus tour.
