High school seniors will find answers to their questions about college life when the University of Memphis holds its annual Campus Day on two occasions this fall. Students may attend the event on either of two Saturdays, Oct. 8 or Nov. 5.  Both days’ events will begin at 11 a.m. and last until 4:30 p.m.

Campus Day is free, but registration is necessary. Online registration is available at http://recruitment.memphis.edu.

The reservation deadline for the October event is Sept. 30.

Reservations forthe November session must be made by Oct. 28.

Campus Day, which is also open to parents, will begin with lunch and entertainment by the University’s pop music group, Sound Fuzion. U of M administrators will welcome visitors.

Guests will hear from current University students, parents, and U of M representatives as they talk about the admissions process, scholarships and financial aid, academic programs, residence life, and student services. They will also have a chance to visit academic departments of their choice, talk with faculty members, and tour the campus.
