BRIDGEWATER, VA (Rocktown Now) — Bridgewater College will welcome prospective students and their families to campus for Virginia Private College Week, which will be observed July 21-26, 2025. Prospective students – including transfer students – and their families are invited to sign up for a session to visit the College and learn more about Bridgewater’s offerings.

Bridgewater will host multiple information sessions throughout the week for prospective students and their families. The sessions, held at 9:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. Monday through Friday, will include campus tours as well as overviews of academics, student life, admissions processes and financial aid. An additional morning session will be held at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, July 26. Parking signs will be posted around campus.

“Virginia Private College Week is a great opportunity for students and families to tour campus and experience the Bridgewater College community,” said Michael Post, Vice President for Enrollment Management at Bridgewater College in a release. “Visitors will see how Bridgewater supports our students’ academic and personal growth and provides a high-quality private education at a public college price.”

Each student who visits a participating CICV institution during Virginia Private College Week will be entered into a random drawing for one of five $100 Amazon gift cards. Students will receive a drawing entry for each institution they visit.

Prospective students and families can register online for a Virginia Private College Week session at Bridgewater. Anyone unable to attend a session during Virginia Private College Week may contact the College’s Admissions staff to set up an individual in-person tour or take a virtual tour of campus online.
