Located on the 3rd Floor of the Stayer Center, the Office of Admission provides guidance to individuals seeking admission to our traditional undergraduate programs offered during the day at our Fond du Lac campus. Our admission counselors are available to help students with the application process, understand financial aid, and enroll in the program of their choice. Our student ambassadors serve as tour guides for anyone interested in exploring campus.
