Important Message for Prospective Students & Families

With news about the COVID-19 virus changing so rapidly, the University made the tough decision on March 14 to cancel all campus visits and events until further notice. This decision was made out of concern for the health and well-being of our students, staff, faculty, and the greater Sewanee community. The Office of Admission will continue to offer a variety of online visit options for anyone who would like to connect and learn more about Sewanee.

Right Here
And it's the one place on earth where the Sewanee experience is possible.

Application Process

We only make one decision when it comes to admission. We admit students who belong at Sewanee. That's why one of our first steps in the admission process is for us to determine fit.

Admitted Students

Excited to begin your journey here on the Mountain? This is where you can make your enrollment deposit, register for an admitted student event, keep up with our Sewanee Sessions, and learn more about the people, places, and opportunities you will soon be acquainted with.

Visit Campus

A visit to the Domain (that's what we call our 13,000-acre campus) is the best way to determine if Sewanee is a good fit for you. During this time around COVID-19, we will do our best to bring Sewanee to you, virtually!

Connect

At Sewanee, we provide individual attention to each student during the admission process. Your admission counselor is available to you every step of the way.

Cost & Financial Aid

How much does it cost to go to Sewanee? Not as much as you might think. Find out the baseline tuition, room, board and fee specifics, then estimate your adjusted net price.

Diversity in Admission

In the Sewanee admission office, we are committed to student access in higher education. Consider us your resource, your cheerleader, and your biggest advocate.

Pre-College & Summer Programs

From the arts, to fieldwork, to creative writing, Sewanee's pre-college programs give high school students a taste of life on the Domain during one of the most beautiful times of the year.

College Counselors

Sewanee loves counselors, and we'd love to have you to visit. Discover your best opportunity to see the Domain firsthand.

The Sewanee Pledge
Plan to do something cool. We'll cover the rest.

Sewanee provides funding for an approved summer internship or research fellowship, a semester-long study abroad opportunity at no additional tuition cost, and the ability to graduate with one major in four years. Of course, you will have to do your part. If you meet Sewanee’s academic and social expectations, these opportunities are guaranteed.

Our Promise to you

Our small classes mean that your voice will be heard, your contribution will be expected, and your opinion will be listened to (and disagreed with, and challenged, and seen from a different perspective, and pushed in a new direction, and considered—and you know what? Maybe we’re both right. See how it works?).
