Future Marlins and their families visited Virginia Wesleyan University on October 16 for a look at life on campus during the fall Marlins Day Open House.

The day began with tours of Wesleyan's beautiful 300-acre campus, followed by a welcome session in the Goode Fine and Performing Arts Center with remarks from VWU President Scott D. Miller and Vice President for Enrollment Heather Campbell '04. A Q&A panel followed, featuring representation from University leadership, academics, athletics, and the student body. 

Throughout the morning, visitors explored campus, met VWU faculty and staff, and learned about academic offerings, scholarships, and the financial aid process. An Academic & Student Resource Fair took place in the Jane P. Batten Student Center. Guests also had the opportunity to watch Marlin athletics in action with VWU swimming and soccer, and auditions were held in Hofheimer Theatre for the Wesleyan Music Department. Lunch was served in Boyd Dining Center.

The next Marlins Day Open House is scheduled for Saturday, February 12. Learn more and register at vwu.edu/marlinsdays.
