It’s decision time for nearly 4,000 future students and family members expected to visit the University of Waterloo this weekend.

You@Waterloo Day, taking place Saturday, May 25, offers students who have received an undergraduate offer of admission the chance to meet professors, staff, and students; take campus or residence tours; and speak with current students about their personal "Waterloo experience."

"You@Waterloo Day is a chance for students who have been admitted to Waterloo to visit and see if we are the right fit for them," says Kathryn Fedy, manager of the Visitors Centre. "Tours and information booths will allow students and their parents to ask questions and gain a more detailed understanding of university life at Waterloo."

A popular goal of students visiting Waterloo at this time of year is to see the residence buildings where they might be living in September. Throughout the day, visitors can tour Waterloo's main campus and affiliated university colleges. Campus tours last 45 minutes and start from the Physical Activities Complex (PAC).
