We’re so excited about your visit!

Join us for an Open House and get an overview on student life, academic programs, and hear from the College of Arts and Sciences, College of Business, and College of Education and take a campus tour.

UMW 2023 Fall Open House dates include:

• Saturday, October 21
• Saturday, November 11

We also have campus tours and information sessions Monday through Saturday. Our tours include academic, student centered, and residence halls. You'll get to see a bit of everything and explore a campus that feels like home. Check the calendar for a date that fits your schedule.

Not able to find a date or time that works for you? Our campus is open to visitors all year long. We invite you to have a look around on a Self-Guided Walking Tour. While you're here, please drop by the Welcome Center for a t-shirt!

After you visit campus, spend some time and explore Fredericksburg! Grab pizza at Mellow Mushroom, Benny's, or Castiglia's or grab ice cream or gelato at the Blue Cow, Italian Station, Abner B's Ice Cream or Carl’s Frozen Custard, and then stay for hot dogs and peanuts at a Fredericksburg Nationals game at FredNats Park!

Plan Ahead

Make sure to bring your walking shoes and plan ahead. While our campus includes modern updates, it still holds historic charm as you’ll navigate through brick pathways and buildings. Take a look at our campus map, parking map, and accessibility map to plan your visit.
