Bridgewater College will welcome prospective students and their families to campus for Virginia Private College Week, which will be observed July 15 to 20, 2024.
Prospective students, including transfer students, and their families are invited to sign up for a session to visit the College and learn more about Bridgewater’s offerings.

“Virginia Private College Week is a fantastic chance to get a comprehensive view of how Bridgewater gets you connected at the start of your college journey,” Michael Post, Bridgewater’s vice president for enrollment management, said. “Visiting our campus offers families an invaluable opportunity to experience our community firsthand. It’s the perfect way to understand how we support our students’ academic and personal growth, and our commitment to transparent pricing and guaranteed scholarships means you can see exactly how we provide a high-quality private education at a public price.”
Each student who visits a participating CICV institution during Virginia Private College Week will be entered into a random drawing for one of five $100 Amazon gift cards. Students will receive a drawing entry for each institution they visit.
