SIUE Offers Safe, Self-Guided Tours during Pandemic
The Southern Illinois University Edwardsville Office of Admissions is offering new self-guided tours as an option for prospective students and their families to safely visit campus during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“The self-guided tour allows visitors to see campus at their own pace and time,” said Kelley Brooks, assistant director for campus visits and outreach. “Many of our in-person tours are limited due to the pandemic. Therefore, the self-guided tour provides an option for all to see campus in the same manner as those who schedule tours with a tour ambassador.”
Printed brochures guide visitors through campus with 10 signs identifying the tour stops. The brochure is available at various campus locations: Office of Admissions, Morris University Center, Elijah P. Lovejoy Library and the Student Fitness Center. Visitors can view the brochure at siue.edu/visit, and check for building hours and parking information.
The self-guided tour complements the SIUE virtual tour, available at siue.edu/virtual-tour.
Traditional daily campus tours are available, but limited to groups of nine individuals. To schedule a traditional campus tour, visit siue.edu/visit/schedule-a-tour.
The Office of Admissions is open 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Mon.-Fri. for additional questions.
