Freshman and Transfer Open House

October 31, 2025 | 8:45 AM

Get ready for a thrilling Halloween adventure at Delta State University’s Open House on Friday, October 31, 2025! The day kicks off with registration at 8 a.m. at the Bologna Performing Arts Center (BPAC), where a lively welcome session sets the stage for an unforgettable experience. From there, students will embark on a “trick-or-tour” across campus, exploring everything DSU has to offer in a festive, spooky atmosphere.

The event promises a hauntingly good time, starting with a spooky kickoff at the BPAC featuring the Admissions staff, a Student Organization Fair, and a live DJ spinning festive tunes. Guided by our spirited Delta Diplomats, haunted campus tours will showcase the university’s vibrant community. Academic showcases led by faculty from every program area will give a creepy-cool glimpse into DSU’s offerings. For those ready to take the next step, on-site admissions support will be available for students who bring required documents. The day will also feature costume contests, festive music, and plenty of Halloween-themed photo opportunities to capture the fun.

Come dressed in your favorite Halloween costume (optional) to show your school spirit! Costumes should be school-appropriate, meaning no full face masks or weapon props. Group costumes and creative themes are highly encouraged to add to the festive vibe. To make the most of on-site admissions support, be sure to bring official transcripts, ACT scores, and immunization records.

The day begins with check-in at the Bologna Performing Arts Center, with activities continuing through early afternoon across various parts of campus. Lunch will be provided, and clear parking and event signage will guide you to the BPAC for check-in. Accessibility and accommodation requests are warmly welcomed to ensure everyone can join in the fun.

Don’t miss out on this spirited day! RSVP now to reserve your spot and let us prepare your welcome bag for this unforgettable Halloween adventure. We can’t wait to see your costumes, your school spirit, and your future as part of the Delta State family on October 31!
