Information Session & campus tour
The Information Session & Campus Tour provide an in-depth look at the Point Loma campus. The Information Session will include valuable information on the admissions process, academic scholarships, financial aid, academic programs, student life and spiritual life programs. A student tour guide will meet you at the end of the information session to take you on a 45-minute walking tour of the campus.
The Information Session & Campus Tour are offered year round, Monday through Friday, at 10: 30 a.m. A 1:30 p.m. Information Session & Campus Tour is added September through April. We do have Saturday Information Sessions & Campus Tours on the second and fourth Saturday of the month from October through March (excluding holiday weekends).
We offer students the opportunity of completing an Admissions Interview as a part of their application. For the Interview, the student will meet individually with one of our Admissions counselors, and the Interview lasts approximately 20-30 minutes. Admissions Interviews are an optional part of the application process and can only enhance your application; choosing not to complete an interview will not harm your application in any way.
Admissions Interviews are available Monday through Friday from 9:00am-4:00pm. We do offer Saturday Interviews on the second and fourth Saturday of the month from October through March (excluding holiday weekends). Please schedule your Admissions Interview well in advance of the date you would like to visit. Admissions Interviews must be completed before the application deadline.
*** For students applying for Spring or Fall of 2009, we will schedule admissions interviews beginning June 15, 2008.
Chapel Services are an important part of developing and sustaining the spiritual life here at Point Loma. Students attend chapel on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 9:45-10:20am, and you are welcome to attend a chapel service if you visit the campus on one of these days. (NOTE: Some chapel services are for current students only, i.e. students meeting with their academic advisors. Please wait for an Admissions representative to confirm your chapel visit.)
Our cafeteria is a great place to meet current students, enjoy a good meal and take in a spectacular view. We invite you to have lunch on us as part of your visit! Be sure to pick up lunch passes when you check in at the Admissions Office. (Overnight guests: we will provide you with breakfast, lunch and dinner in the cafeteria.)
A great way to experience the academic life at Point Loma is to be a part of it! Prospective students are welcome to visit a class in any department during our regular school year (summers excluded). We require at least two weeks' notice to arrange a class visit.
Our faculty enjoy sharing their knowledge and insight with prospective students, especially by giving an in-depth look at their own department or program. We can arrange an individual appointment with a faculty member in a department of your choice. We require at least two weeks' notice to arrange an appointment as the availability and time depends on the faculty member's schedule.
