Tour Your Dream State School From Home With the Virtual College Tour. 

With students mostly unable to physically tour a college or university due to COVID-19-related visitor restrictions, colleges and universities are offering virtual tours. The virtual tours will provide prospective students the ability to explore the campus, hear about academic programs, as well as to understand the unique opportunities and requirements that vary from one school to the next throughout Florida.

Virtual tours will take you on a “walk” through campus with 360-degree views inside certain buildings, paired with an informative narration about the programs and opportunities the school provides. You do not need to create an account or register to access the virtual tours on youvisit.com. Simply press the ‘x’ on the top right corner of the ‘Get Started!’ page to proceed to the tour.
