Open House

Come fall in love with Lynchburg.

There’s only so much you can learn about a college from a website. Our Open House is your chance to experience Lynchburg for yourself.

Spend the day exploring campus, meeting the people who make this place special, and getting a real feel for what life as a Hornet is like. You’ll hear from University leadership, tour campus with a current student, connect with faculty, learn more about financial aid, and discover the academic programs, clubs, and opportunities that could shape your Lynchburg experience.

Whether you’re just beginning your college search or narrowing down your choices, the Open House is designed to help you picture yourself here.

Come with questions. Bring your family. Meet your future professors, classmates, and community.
