Wildcat Weekend

Wildcat Weekend is your chance to visit campus and take in two days worth of university activities. Prospective students will attend an information fair, listen to professors talk about their academic programs, eat in the cafeteria, and much more. Bring your parents, bring your friends, and spend a few days in Marquette getting a real NMU student experience. (Both the hockey team and the football team are playing home games!) Visit the Wildcat Weekend web site for more information. Can't make Wildcat Weekend? We have a campus visit program that allows you to schedule a visit when it is convenient for you.
