Ringling Spotlight Days

Step onto campus and into your future

Spotlight Days are your chance to experience campus energy up close and discover how your passion can become your profession. Spend a half day with us—meet inspiring faculty, connect with your Admissions counselor, tour our creative campus, hear real stories from current students, and enjoy lunch in Cunniffe Commons.

It’s the perfect way to get an inside look at Ringling College and meet the people who will support you from your first question to your graduation day.

Bonus:

Attend a Spotlight Day, and you’ll qualify for the Ringling Visit Scholarship—an extra $1,000 added to your merit award if you choose to enroll at Ringling College of Art and Design.

Pretty great, right?
