How to Visit Rowan University or Attend an Admissions Event

Rowan University offers both virtual and in-person visit options through its Tours & Open Houses page, linked from the main navigation under Admissions & Aid. You can also browse upcoming campus events — arts, athletics, and more — on the Events section of the homepage. To attend, start at rowan.edu, go to Admissions & Aid, and select Tours & Open Houses to see current options and register.

Where to find visit and event information

Rowan's homepage navigation organizes visit-related links in two places:

The homepage's "Visit Rowan" block describes the offerings as "Virtual & In-Person Events," so you can expect both formats to appear on the same Tours & Open Houses page.

Steps to plan a visit

1. Go to rowan.edu and open the main menu.
2. Select Admissions & Aid, then Tours & Open Houses. This is the central page for visit scheduling.
3. Choose a format — virtual or in-person — based on what's listed at the time you check.
4. Register through the page. The site routes visitors to registration rather than publishing a static calendar, so the available dates and times will be whatever is currently posted.
5. Confirm logistics before you travel. The university's address is 201 Mullica Hill Road, Glassboro, New Jersey 08028, and the main phone number is 856-256-4000. Use these if you need to verify details.
6. Check the Events section if you want to combine a visit with something happening on campus, such as an arts or athletics event.

Matching the visit to your applicant type

Rowan separates admissions paths, and the visit or event you pick should match yours:

• First-year applicants — look for freshman-focused tours and open houses under First-Year Admissions.
• Transfer students — Transfer Admissions has its own requirements and process page; check whether visit sessions are segmented by transfer status.
• Graduate and degree completion — Graduate Admissions and Rowan Online cover these paths.
• Medical education — Cooper Medical School of Rowan University (MD), Virtua Health College of Medicine & Life Sciences (DO), and Shreiber School of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) each have their own admissions pages; visit options for these programs may differ from the main campus tour.
• International applicants — International Admissions has a dedicated page for exploring options.

If you're unsure which session fits, the admissions page for your applicant type is the safer starting point than the general tour page.

What you can learn from a visit

A tour or open house is the most direct way to see the campus environment, academic facilities, and student life that the website can only describe. Rowan's site also points to related areas worth exploring during or after a visit: Colleges & Schools, Degrees & Programs, Housing & Dining, Athletics & Sports, and the Center for Well-being. Pairing a tour with a look at these pages gives you a fuller picture than either alone.

Common sticking points

• Registration is required for most visit formats. The homepage loads a "Ready to Learn More?" form rather than listing dates directly, so plan to submit your information to get specifics.
• Availability changes. Because the site doesn't publish a fixed public calendar in the content shown, treat any dates you see as current-only and re-check before making travel plans.
• Program-specific visits. Medical and veterinary programs may not appear in the general tour listings; go through their individual admissions pages.
• Contact for confirmation. If a page doesn't answer your question, the main line is 856-256-4000, and the Contact Us page lists additional options.
