At Hendrix, you don’t just visit campus, you experience it. And the best way
to do that is through a customized, individual campus visit. You can schedule
a visit anytime during the year, although we encourage you to come when classes
are in session and student activities are in full swing so you can experience a real
taste of Hendrix campus life. Just give us a call at 1-800-277-9017.
Your individualHendrix experience.
Things to do during
your individualHendrix experience:
> attend a class> take a student-led campus walk> learn more about financial aid> meet one-on-one with an admission
counselor> have lunch in the cafeteria> meet individually with a faculty
member and/or a coach*> stay overnight with a student
(high school seniors only)**must be arranged in advance
