Vision Days visits are tailored to meet the needs of each high school grade visiting campus. When ninth-grade students visit campus they will receive a general overview of "college" and The University of Alabama. They will learn the difference between major, minor, and the colleges on campus while also being introduced to the "admissions" process. Additionally, students will learn about the importance of dual enrollment and early planning for high school graduation. Vision Days visits are tailored to meet the needs of each high school grade visiting campus.
