Visit The Citadel
Prospective cadets and prospective CGC (The Citadel Graduate College) and CTP (College Transfer Program) students are strongly encouraged to visit the college before deciding to attend.
For Prospective Cadets
- Individual Campus Visits: The Office of Admissions offers daily individual visits that are open to all interested students and their families. These visits include an interview with an admissions counselor and a campus tour guided by a Citadel cadet.
- Overnight Visits: For a deeper experience, academically accepted cadets can (and are encouraged to) arrange overnight visits during the school year.
- Overnight visits are scheduled throughout the school year and are the most effective way to determine if The Citadel is the best college choice for you. During overnight visits, you will go to classes, eat in the mess hall, sleep in the barracks, and participate in other aspects of cadet life. As an overnight visitor, you will be assigned a cadet host for your stay. These overnight visits are restricted to those students who have been academically accepted for admission and may be arranged through the Office of Admissions.
