Shadow visits
The best way to know if Marquette fits into your future is through an on-campus experience. Join our current students (our Marquette experts) and experience our academic and social life on campus. During a fall Shadow Visit, you’ll attend classes, eat college food, meet current students, and tour all of our academic and extracurricular facilities. During a spring Shadow Visit, you can choose a day or overnight option, stay overnight in a residence hall, attend classes, eat college food, meet current students, tour all of our academic and extracurricular amenities, and travel throughout the city of Milwaukee.
Interested in trying it on and seeing if it’s a fit? Contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions at (414) 288-7302. Please note that scheduling a Shadow Visit requires three weeks’ notice and are for high school seniors only.
