Stay connected
Now more than ever, it is important that you have opportunities to explore Union virtually.
We offer a number of ways for you to learn about Union College and connect with members of our community when a visit to campus is not possible.
Open houses
Join us for one of our Discover Union: Virtual Open Houses, an hour-long opportunity to learn more about Union College from a variety of voices.
Offered Thursdays at 7:00 p.m. eastern time, each program will feature an introduction from Admissions, an overview of academic life from a faculty member and class dean, and a panel discussion with current students. At 8:00 p.m., you have the option to stay in the session for a virtual tour of Union's beautiful campus with one of our student guides.
Information sessions
Experience Union from the comfort of your home. Every weekday an admissions dean will give an overview of the College and answer your questions. Morning and afternoon sessions are offered.
A short video introduction to Union by Matt Malatesta '91, VP for Admissions and Financial Aid, is also available.
