    Group Visit Registration

    Visiting Anderson University in S.C.

    Thank you for your interest in visiting AU in South Carolina! Please read the information below thoroughly and complete the form. Once the form is received, we will verify whether we are able to accommodate your request within 10 days.

    Our campus group visit experience allows students to get familiar with our campus culture and academics. We place a high priority on providing this experience to those interested.

    All Group Visit requests are considered and approved based on the availability of campus resources.

    What age groups can visit?
    We welcome all ages! However, there are certain times that work best for certain age groups. We can host high school groups most any times. Elementary and Middle schools work best August-September. During the spring, please note our April is extremely busy with visitors due to spring breaks, and it is difficult to fit in any group tours during this month.
     
    How long is a group visit?
    A minimum of 1.5 hours (30 minute overview and 1 hour campus tour) is required for group visits, and based on the size, age and interest of the group, could last up to 3 hours. Please take travel time, traffic, loading and unloading your group into consideration when selecting arrival and departure times. In addition to a campus tour, our visits include an overview of the university. As time permits, visits for high school students will also include an Enrollment Presentations. Groups of ninth graders and below are required to have one chaperone for every 15 students. Groups of tenth graders and above are required to have one chaperone for every 20 students. Chaperones will be accompanying their students throughout the entire visit experience.
     
    Can group visits dine on campus?
    Dining on campus is NOT available for summer group visits (May-August).
    The opportunity to dine on campus during the academic school year can be requested at the group's expense. Groups larger than 15 are more challenging to accommodate but will be considered on a case by case basis. Payment for groups must be done in a lump sum by cash, check, or credit card (VISA and MasterCard only). Checks are to be made out to AVI Foodsystems.
