I want to schedule a campus visit.

Campus visits take place on weekdays so that you can meet with academic advisors, see current students, and visit university offices.
The best opportunity to learn about life at K-State is to visit while students are there, so it's best to avoid finals week and student holidays. When you call to schedule your visit, you'll work with someone to find a day that will work for you.
Call 1-800-432-8270 (toll free in Kansas) or 785-532-6250 at least two weeks in advance to arrange your campus visit. Office hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays, except when the university is closed for holidays.
