Prospective students should make sure that they visit Elon's campus and meet the teachers and explore the different activities available in order to decide if they want to apply for a academic fellowship or a learning community. Elon University provides so many different opportunities, and it will help to get an idea of what you want to think about doing before you get there. However, there is plenty of time to change your mind and broaden your horizons once you get there. If you get waitlisted do not give up hope, I know many people who got off the waitlist. I would highly reccomend taking advantage of all tours and orientations that you go to. Every time you visit the campus try to meet with teachers in the department(s) you are interested in and talk to as many students as possible. Being well rounded, volunteer work, and leadership experiences are something Elon encourages while you attend the University and before so make sure to list all of your extracurricular activities including service work on your application. Most importantly do not limit yourself before you get to Elon, there are so many opportunities. You will change your mind and have the chance to try so many different things. Make sure to explore every possibility! read full review

I encourage you too definetely visit the campus, and when you do make an appointment with some professors in any areas that you are interested in, take a tour or two, and sit in on some classes. Don't be afraid to talk to some of the students about anything you want to know about Elon. The students are the insiders and will be more than willing to let you in on some secrets! read full review
