Preview Day

2025 fall preview day

Tennessee State University (TSU) is excited to announce its Spring Preview Day on April 12, 2025, where we’ll welcome hundreds of high school juniors, seniors, and their families to experience the heart and soul of our campus. Kicking off at 9 a.m. at the Gentry Center Complex, this event is a celebration of the rich academic and cultural tapestry that TSU has to offer.

Dr. Portia Johnson, our Executive Director of Recruitment, warmly invites everyone to discover the abundant opportunities for growth at TSU. Attendees will engage in a variety of enriching activities, from connecting with academic and financial aid advisors to hearing from deans and department chairs about the incredible programs we offer. You’ll also have the chance to mingle with current students who will share their firsthand experiences and insights into our vibrant campus life.

Elmore J. Jones, Jr., TSU’s Deputy Chief Operating Officer, emphasizes how this event showcases what makes TSU a leading institution among HBCUs. Although last year's Preview Day faced cancellation due to inclement weather, the 2023 event drew over 500 participants from more than 15 states, highlighting our far-reaching community.
