Spring is coming! With this new season we have a variety of options for prospective students and families to visit campus and truly get a sense of what it’s like to be a student at Elon. Whether you are a junior beginning your college search, an admitted senior or have paid your deposit and plan on coming to Elon next fall, there are a variety of options for you! We hope you’ll join us on campus this spring – we’d love to see you!
