I have not been able to locate a virtual tour of the UAH campus. Am I missing it or do they just not have one?
I don’t think they have one.
But the campus has changed a lot over the last several years. If you look at Google’s satellite view vs Bing’s, you can see they are very different (missing ranch houses, existing student center, dormitory, and quad area) although only a year or two apart. G’s streetview is kind of similar. Some shots still show an old street, some others show the modern sidewalk, common area, and structures.
Add to that, they’re still building …
Thanks @50N40W , I am planning to head down there with my daughter in the next month or two. Anything special I should do or ask for on the tour? Does UAH honors do a similar tour like UA does?
@Jay1811 I don’t know - it was the first real campus tour for us. We did get to speak with the department head and a professor. I kind of felt bad for taking their time, but was impressed by the passion they shared for the subject.
Do check out the rocket museum about a mile away. Only place on earth you can stand under a Saturn V, examine a V2, and see another Saturn V through the window beyond. Generally just pretty cool.
Probably, no, definitely had the nicest dorms we’ve seen so far. Didn’t go through Frank Franz (honors dorm) though.
If you tour UAH, go on a Wednesday. It is known as Fried Chicken Wednesday … and it is outstanding. So is the baked chicken.
My son is in his second year at UAH. He did the regular tour and met with two department chairs during his visit. They were very welcoming and presented several great opportunities to my son. Frank Franz is a beautiful, new dorm, but because my son (he is in honors) was on an athletic team, he lived with teammates in CCRH, a much older dorm.
Hello @jay1811 ,
UAH does not currently have a virtual campus tour. However, there is a residence hall virtual tour/video to be found here: http://www.uah.edu/housing. The UAH Admissions Office offers tours of campus and one-on-one appointments with academic departments Monday - Friday at 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM. UAH will also host multiple on-campus visit days such as Charger Preview (9/26) and Discovery Day (11/7 and 11/21). To schedule a campus tour, any special appointments with academic departments, or to sign up for our on-campus events, you may register at www. uah.edu/visit. Please let UAH Admissions know if you would like any further assistance.
Thank you!
