KNOXVILLE — Starting this week, the Office of Undergraduate Admissions will take its “Orange and White Tour” across the state to help prospective students and their parents learn more about the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.

In addition, an open house for high school seniors and their families will be held on the Knoxville campus on Oct. 16.

“The Orange and White Tour allows us to take information about UT Knoxville to our prospective students, while the Open House gives interested students a chance to visit campus,” said Vern Granger, undergraduate admissions director. “At both events, we have admissions experts and current UT students available to visit with high school seniors and community college students and their families. It’s a great chance for prospective students, who get information about UT Knoxville and ask questions that will help them make their college choices.”
