You can also bring your high school group for a customized visit, meet one-on-one with an Admissions Counselor, or get hands-on help with your next steps in the application process.

Visit Options
Schedule a Campus Tour
Join NEIU's Office of Undergraduate Admissions for a 2-hour visit at our Main Campus location. You'll learn about our facilities, the admission process, and what it means to be a Golden Eagle. Grab your comfy shoes and come see what NEIU is all about!
Attend a Preview Day
Spend a day off of school with us! Preview Day is the best and most comprehensive way to see if NEIU is a good "fit." Learn about admission, financial aid, speak with NEIU students and parents, sit in on a class, and take a walking tour of the main campus.
Attend an Upcoming Open House
We'll have representatives from nearly 100 academic programs and 40 student clubs/activities available for you to interact with. You're welcome to stay for a campus tour as well. Arrive when you can, leave when you need to.
Bring your High School Group to Visit
NEIU wants to host your group on our main campus! We set aside 3 hours per visit, nearly every week during the year, to host one group on campus and to give you our full attention. Most group visits happen in increments of 25 visitors (or less) and include a walking tour of campus, an admission presentation, and a team-building activity. You can purchase lunch in our cafeteria or bring your own lunch.
Meet with an Admission Counselor
Schedule an in-person or virtual appointment with one of our Admissions Counselors. During your appointment they will guide you through the admission process and provide you with valuable information for a smooth transition to NEIU. They will also answer any questions you may have about the University.
