Three days on the Emmaus Bible College campus, allowing you
to see what your life could be like as part of the Emmaus Family.
When:
Thursday, October 4 - Saturday, October 6, 2012
Thursday, April 4 - Saturday, April 6, 2013
Registration is on Thursday evening, and the event wraps up Saturday at noon. Students will benefit the most from their campus visit by arriving Thursday evening and staying until noon on Saturday.
The event begins Thursday evening with mixers, a welcome session, and worship. Prospective students are paired up with current students and stay in our dormitories. On Friday, prospective students attend a variety of classes, attend an academic expo to learn about the degrees we offer, and have some down time to take in all that they have experienced. On Friday evening, we will have a special activity for prospective students, current students, and our faculty and staff (which will be announced closer to the date). In the past, we have hosted concerts, gone ice-skating, bowling, and roller-skating. Stay tuned for more details about what the next DEW will hold! Saturday morning provides you with time to sleep in, play in an intramural sports tournament, or tour Dubuque. The event finishes at noon on Saturday after brunch.
We welcome youth leaders and parents to join us for Discover Emmaus Weekend events. We will cover the cost of two youth leaders or parents per group; there is an additional $10 fee for all additional leaders or children.
