Just want to see campus but can’t do a formal tour? No problem! We have tailored our self-guided tour so that you can get the most out of your visit experience at Westmont. Learn everything you need to know and get connected to all the resources that you may need.
Our self-guided tour will give you the option to read, listen, and/or watch all of the information about our beautiful campus and what it looks like to be a Warrior.
When you come to campus, stop by the front of Kerrwood and pick up a self-guided tour packet, ask the security guard or check in with the Admissions Office and we will get everything you need.
Have young kids or an elementary school group? Use our fun interactive Little Warrior scavenger hunt!
