2025 Virginia Private College Week July 21-26th
What is Virginia Private College Week?
Each summer, through coordination with CICV, Virginia private colleges host daily information sessions for prospective students, including rising juniors, seniors, and their families. Prospective transfer students are also invited. It is important that you contact each college directly to make arrangements for your visits because they may have some limits on the number of families that can be accommodated at each session and the times for their sessions vary from campus to campus.
Programs will include information sessions about academic/extracurricular programs, the admission process, and financial aid/scholarships.
When is Virginia Private College Week?
Virginia Private College Week typically take places once a year during the third week of July. Sessions are typically offered Monday through Friday at 9:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. and on Saturday morning, though times may vary at some institutions, so do check the schedules of the colleges you plan to visit.
How can I attend and participate?
While you don’t need to register for Virginia Private College Week, you SHOULD register with each college for its information session/tour. Please visit the college’s individual profile on our site to find links to their Admissions Office and exact dates and times for their information sessions/tours.
How are the Amazon Gift Cards recipients chosen?
Following Private College Week, each member college forwards to us a list of the students who visited their campus that week. From those names, we randomly select five students who are given a $100 Amazon Gift Card. No purchase of any kind is required. Your name goes into the drawing for each college you visit.
If you have questions, please contact us.
