Purple Preview

Please note that registration is required for all official visitor programming. To ensure that we can match you with a host, students who are interested in a Purple Preview shadow experience must register at least one week prior to their visit. Purple Preview is available for high school juniors and seniors only. Parents and family members may not join the shadow experience but are welcome to spend the morning in the Segal Visitors Center or exploring campus and the city of Evanston.

Select a date from the calendar to the right to begin your registration. 

For more information to help you plan your visit, including directions to campus and parking information, please click here. Your registration confirmation email will guide you through other pre-visit preparation recommendations, including information about requesting accessibility accommodations.

If you or your family members are interested in participating in any other activities while you are on campus, please explore our website to register separately for a general campus tour, admission and affordability Q&A session, and more. You will receive a separate confirmation email regarding those events.
