Last Saturday’s Open House brought 101 prospective students and their families to campus—304 visitors total from 15 states—for a day of discovery, inspiration, and possibility.
They came with questions. They left with answers, connections, and a feel for what makes Ringling College different.
Families explored all 13 majors at the Resource Fair, toured studios where student work lines the walls, grabbed lunch at Cunniffe Commons, and heard directly from current students about what campus life actually looks like. The conversations happening in hallways and at tables throughout the day? Those were the real highlights—prospective students connecting with faculty who could become their mentors, parents asking the practical questions that matter, everyone getting a sense of whether this place could be home for the next four years.
Didn’t Make It? There’s Still Time.
If you missed Open House, Ringling Spotlight Day on Friday, March 6, offers another chance to experience the campus. It’s a focused half-day visit: meet faculty, connect with your admissions counselor, tour campus, hear from current students, and get your questions answered by the people who’ll support you from application through graduation.

Your campus visit just got more valuable.
We’re confident you’ll feel it the moment you step on campus—that spark of recognition that this might be the right place. So confident, in fact, that we’re backing it up with our new Ringling Visit Scholarship: a $4,000 scholarship ($1,000 per year over four years) for incoming students who attend an on-campus tour or admissions event and are accepted and enrolled for Fall 2026 or later.
Sometimes the best decisions start with just showing up.
