Fly-in Geek
Making your college decision is a difficult choice. To make the choice easier, it is important to visit college campuses. Our Fly-in Geek Program is an open house event which gives prospective students the opportunity to find out everything they need to know about the University of Advancing Technology. Fly-in Geeks learn about our unique degree programs, tour our technology-infused campus, sit in on classes, eat at the campus cafe, and see campus life up close. Some opt to stay overnight in Founder's Hall as the guest of one of our current students. Interested? RSVP now!
