Admitted Student Days

Admitted Student Day is an exclusive event for accepted freshmen to connect with the academic department of their intended major. This interactive event allows students to spend time in their academic department completing activities and hearing from current faculty and students. At Admitted Student Days, students can also take care of next steps (including the chance to register for Gamecock Orientation early!), sit down one-on-one with financial aid, see incredible university spaces, attend a housing information session, and even take part in an Honors Classroom Experience. These sessions will be start at the University Recreation and Fitness Center. Check out a tentative schedule below and register! Registrants will receive confirmation, reminders, and updated schedules before their Admitted Student Day event. Please note Admitted Student Days have a one guest per student limit.
