As a prospective music student, you are encouraged to spend a day following the schedule of a WCSU Music student. The Colonial For a Day program provides the opportunity to sit in on classes and rehearsals, meet our faculty and current music students, eat lunch as a guest of the Department of Music in The Campus Center Westside Marketplace, and get a feel for life on campus.
Pre-set schedules have been created to make the most of your time here. Please submit the Colonial For a Day Request Form by clicking here. You will receive a confirmation via email, along with further instructions. Please note you must submit the form at least three weeks in advance of your visit. Any forms received after this point will only be considered if there is availability.

All prospective students who wish to visit in Fall 2019 may do so the following weeks of 9/23/19; 10/21/19 and 11/18/19
Colonial For a Day visits will not be scheduled during the summer, on weekends, Fridays or on WCSU holidays
Recommended days for visiting by area
