Bridgewater's growing number of innovative academic programs helps to ensure that students are prepared to think critically, communicate effectively and act responsibly within a context of personal and professional ethics. We invite you to join us for a tour of the Bridgewater State University campus. Bridgewater State University is located in Bridgewater, Massachusetts, and is in easy reach of major highways. The campus is approximately 40 minutes south of Boston, 30 minutes north of Cape Cod, and 50 minutes northeast of Providence, Rhode Island, and is within a half mile of Bridgewater Center.

Students have the opportunity to hear from the Directors of Admission and Residential Life and Housing, meet in a group session with professors of the major that they are interested, explore the social opportunities that the campus has to offer and tour the campus with a current Bridgewater State University student. Fall Preview Days are arranged by College and according to the major in which a student is interested. Our 2012 dates are Saturday October 27th (College of Education and Allied Studies), November 3rd (College of Humanities and Social Sciences) as well as Saturday, November 17th (Ricciardi College of Business and Bartlett College of Science & Mathematics).
