Tiger Summer

What is Tiger Summer?

Tiger Summer Graphic Wittenberg University knows that Tigers are fierce, strong, and independent, but they also need time to decompress, think, take a breath, and make a good decision.

Tiger Summer 2025 gives future Tigers the opportunity to explore campus firsthand, take in all that Wittenberg has to offer, immerse themselves in the Witt community, complete important next steps, and more – no matter where they are in their college decision journey!

Tiger Summer is designed for:

  • Future Tigers entering college this fall who need that extra time - time to explore further, get answers to their questions, and ensure they are making a good (and right) college decision.
  • Future Tigers who have already committed to joining us this fall and would like to begin enjoying and experiencing life at Witt before the start of August classes.
  • Future Tigers who are still in high school and want to get a head start by pouncing on their college search early.

Contact the Office of Admission with questions at any time by calling (937) 327-6314, emailing admission@wittenberg.edu, or reaching out to your Admission Counselor directly. We’re here to help, and can’t wait to see you on campus this summer. Remember to bring your family and friends, too. Tiger Up!
