SEEING IS BELIEVING  YOUR INVITATION TO VISIT (Adobe PDF) Visiting campus is one of the best ways to discover if a particular college is right for you. You can sit in on a class, tour campus, meet with a professor, stay overnight in a residence hall, interview with an admission counselor, and ask current students what the college is like day-to-day. Our award-winning campus, including several buildings in the National Register of Historic Places, provides a residential college setting conducive to Southwestern's nationally recognized academic program. At Southwestern University, we strongly encourage you to visit our campus in Georgetown and meet the people who make it a special place.
