Campus Visit Program for Transfer and Adult Students
Visit Campus
Your visit to Belknap Campus includes a 30-minute presentation from a transfer and adult counselor and a 90-minute walking campus tour. Two Cardinal Guides will lead you on the tour, tell you about their own experiences, and answer your questions about student life.
New transfer students, who visit campus between June 1 and Aug. 1, can apply to UofL for free for Fall 2027!
Important Travel Alert
A portion of Interstate 65 in Louisville (Jefferson Street to Watterson Expressway), the primary interstate route to campus, will be fully closed for repairs from June through July 2026. Due to expected traffic congestion and increased travel times, students and family members visiting campus over the summer should plan extra travel time to campus. Detour routes to campus will be communicated when available.
