NORTH PARK — Any campus can look great during an official tour, but what are the professors really like, how noisy are the dorms and how gross is the cafeteria food?

North Park University invites prospective students to take part in Preview Days, scheduled for Jan. 27-28 and February 17-18, to get the full college experience.

Visitors — typically high school juniors and seniors and transfer students — will have the opportunity to meet professors, attend a class, get the scoop on campus life and spend the night in a residence hall (seniors and transfer students only). Parents are welcome, too, with activities geared toward their interests — like financial aid seminars.

Registration is required at least one week advance, and is available online or by calling the Visit Desk at (800) 888-6728 or (773) 244-5511.

North Park University was founded in 1891 by the Evangelical Covenant Church and enrolls approximately 3,200 students.
