Fall Open House is perfect for students who want to learn what it takes to become a part of the rich legacy and tradition of Howard University. At Open House, you and your family will have the opportunity to talk with current students, faculty, staff, and alumni. The program begins in Burr Gymnasium at 10AM followed by our “HU College Fair” where our undergraduate departments and special programs are invited to participate. Our admission staff will be on hand to answer your questions, guide you through the application process, and help you discover all that Howard has to offer. Additionally, our Student Ambassadors will lead tours of our beautiful hilltop campus. Following the event on campus, guests are invited to attend the second annual “Truth and Service Classic” football game at Audi Field where our Howard University Bison take on the Harvard Crimson. Open House guests will be provided with tickets to the game.
