MTSU conducts True Blue Previews to invite prospective students to see the campus;, take extended tours led by student guides; learn about academic departments and student services, housing, programs and student organizations; meet faculty and staff from academic areas and the Division of Student Affairs; and explore some of the services that are provided to students. This distinctive recruiting event also gives top university officials an opportunity to welcome future Blue Raiders to campus.
