Admissions Events

Get to know us: learn more about undergraduate programs at Stamps in upcoming virtual and in-person admissions events.

Our team is unable to accommodate requests to provide individual tours or appointments for visitors. If a Stamps event isn’t available on a date that works for your schedule, all students and families can take advantage of our self-guided tour option. 

We encourage prospective students to look at tours of U‑M’s Central Campus when planning your visit.
