The sessions, held at 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. Monday through Friday, will include campus tours as well as overviews of student life, admissions, financial aid and academics. An additional morning session will be held at 9 a.m. Saturday, July 30.

“Visiting campuses is an important step in the college search process, and we are excited to welcome prospective students and their families to our campus during Virginia Private College Week to showcase the Bridgewater experience,” said Michael Post, vice president for enrollment management at Bridgewater College. “Visiting students will get a glimpse of the student experience at Bridgewater College and leave with a thorough understanding of what it means to be an Eagle.”

Students may use these waivers to apply for free to any three participating colleges, and they will also be entered into a drawing for one of five $100 Amazon gift cards.
