Visit Georgia Southern University

In order for us to best prepare for your arrival, we strongly encourage you to schedule your visit at least three or more business days prior to your desired visit date. If you require special assistance, such as handicap accessibility, please contact our office at least three days prior to your visit. We are happy to provide accommodations to make your visit more enjoyable.

You can schedule your visit by:

• Completing our online registration form for the campus you want to visit.
• Calling the Office of Admissions at 912-478-5851. 
• Emailing the Office of Admissions at visit@georgiasouthern.edu.

Daily campus visits are available Monday through Friday. We also host Eagle Preview open house events on select Saturdays throughout the year — check our events calendar for upcoming dates. If you’re unable to visit during those times, our virtual visit page offers interactive campus tours, student-led video tours, and residence hall walkthroughs available anytime, on your schedule.

Because your campus visit includes a walking tour, we strongly encourage you to wear comfortable walking shoes and to dress appropriately for the forecasted weather. During the summer months our campuses can be quite warm and humid. No matter the weather, the Office of Admissions will provide you with bottled water prior to your tour departure.

Statesboro Campus

Free visitor parking is available in front of Lewis Hall (Office of Admissions) on Sweetheart Circle. If you have trouble finding a parking spot, additional parking spots may be available in the parking lot behind Lewis Hall. Prior to your visit, we will email you a form to register your car (once you register your car, a parking permit is not needed).

Armstrong Campus in Savannah

We recommend arriving no more than 10 minutes before your visit starts — that gives you plenty of time to check in and get settled before your admissions presentation. If you’d like to meet with someone about admissions, financial aid, or anything else, plan to arrive up to an hour early to connect with available staff.
