Prospective students and their families visited Virginia Wesleyan University on April 1 for a look at life on campus during the University's spring Marlins Day Open House.

The day began with early bird tours of VWU's beautiful 300-acre campus, followed by a welcome session in the Goode Fine and Performing Arts Center with remarks from President Scott D. Miller and Vice President for Enrollment Heather Campbell '04. A panel session followed, featuring current VWU students addressing topics from campus life to academic support. Throughout the morning, visitors explored campus, met VWU faculty and staff, and learned about academic offerings, scholarships, residence life, dining services, the financial aid process and more. 

An Academic & Student Resource Fair took place in the Jane P. Batten Student Center, and auditions for the VWU fine and performing arts were held in the Watts Lobby of the Goode Fine and Performing Arts Center. Future Marlins also had the opportunity to enjoy lunch in Boyd Dining Center, watch women’s lacrosse compete at Birdsong Field, and catch a showing of VWU's spring theatre production in Brock Theatre.
