Vandal Friday

Vandal Friday

Vandal Friday is an excellent opportunity for high school seniors to stay overnight on campus and participate in social activities. During their visit they will receive academic advising by faculty (admitted students can register early for fall classes), arrange for fall housing, and participate in many other events and activities.

Students and parents can tour campus, explore the various residence options, and participate in informative workshops. The Activities Fair gives students a chance to learn about the dozens of student clubs, extracurricular activities and student support available to students.

Not only is Vandal Friday a chance for students to get to know the University of Idaho, but it is a great opportunity for parents and counselors too! Check out the parents program and the counselors program to find out more information.
