Virtual Visits

Ready to find out what it's like to be a Duck? We’re committed to providing a digital experience that's customized just for you. Get the large-scale feel of a virtual campus visit, schedule a one-on-one Zoom meeting with a counselor or current student, or just explore all of the online resources we have to offer for you while you’re at home.

Regional Hangouts

Admitted freshmen are invited to these regional hangouts. We’ll be gathering in Zoom to get to know you, share important information, introduce you to a current student, and have a little fun getting to know the UO while getting your questions answered.
