Campus Connections
Campus Connections is a program that adds an optional academic information session to the regular campus visit. These sessions will give prospective students an in-depth view of various academic majors. On Mondays and Fridays throughout the school year, UT’s academic colleges will host sessions focused on their academic programs. Starting in the Spring of 2008, these sessions will include the College of Arts & Sciences, College of Business Administration, College of Education, Health, and Human Sciences, and the College of Engineering. Each session will be held in the UT Visitors’ Center.
Registration for these sessions is through the normal tour registration system. You must register for a tour first and then you will be able to select a Campus Connections session.
