Admissions
Welcome to Longwood! The magic of our university is in its people—friends meeting on Brock Commons, professors who actually teach classes and are motivated by your success, and students who rally around each other to reach new heights—like our historic NCAA Tournament runs in 2022 and 2024 propelled by the energy of our student section. Here you’ll find the most classes of any Virginia public university taught by full-time faculty members and a vibrant residential campus community where you can make lifelong friends and pursue your interests with nearly 200 clubs and organizations.
As you plan your visit to explore our campus and start to dream about life as a Lancer, I hope you’ll reach out to us!
