Visiting KSU

When is the best time to visit Kennesaw State University (KSU)?

Kennesaw State University (KSU) offers many special events throughout the year designed to give students an inside look into Owl Nation!

Campus tours are hosted daily for students interested in learning more about Owl Nation. Each tour will include a 30-minute information session covering topics from campus majors and programs, admissions requirements, and financial aid. A 60-minute walking tour of campus will also allow students and their supporters to see academic spaces and campus life.

Open House offers you the opportunity to learn more about your major and your desired field of study. You will also receive information on admission requirements and financial aid, and you will have the chance to hear from current Kennesaw State University (KSU) students.

When planning all Enrollment Services events, every effort is made to avoid scheduling them on any religious holidays or standardized testing dates.
