Vision Days is a campus-wide effort focusing on the college readiness of high school students from rural and underrepresented areas in our home state of Alabama.
We want Alabama high schoolers to set their sights on UA.
Over a four year period, high school students will receive information and materials about post-secondary education and continually visit campus with their cohort to learn about different areas of student life.

As 9th graders, students will begin exploring the colleges and majors available at The University of Alabama. Their junior visit to campus includes a curated tour of the college of their choosing.
