Overnights with the Monroe Society

Note: This post is from 2013. The Monroe Society is no longer active. 

If you're an admitted student planning to visit us for Days on the Lawn, remember that you can always plan to stay overnight with a member of the Monroe Society. There's a good group of first year members who are eager to help you see what UVa is like beyond the tours and information sessions.

The Monroe Society hosts students all year long, but during March and April, they focus exclusively on admitted students. If you're interested in staying on Grounds the night before DOTL, submit a request at least a week in advance

Pack your bags!
