Olivet is nestled in the historic village of Bourbonnais, Illinois — about an hour from Chicago. Situated on more than 275 acres, the campus consists of both historic and innovative architecture, on beautiful, park-like grounds. Nearby are coffee shops, restaurants and all the amenities a college town affords.
If your visit includes an overnight stay, and your family requires lodging, there are plenty of options. Also, while in town, stop at a few of these student favorites.
At Olivet, we don’t just say that — it’s in everything we do. Belonging is an important part of this community, where every individual is valued as we work together for a common good.
Current students will serve as your hosts for the day as you tour the campus, visit classes, dine together, and jump into the Olivet scene. Many students make new connections with other visiting families, as well.
Each visit includes a brief session with your personal Admissions Counselor, where you can ask the burning enrollment and financial aid questions, and map out your plan for success at Olivet.
Meet with a professor in your academic area of interest and learn what it would be like to be a student in that program. If you're still deciding, that's okay too! We can still connect you with some incredible faculty that will walk you through the process of becoming a college student.
Too far to drive to Olivet? We’ve got you covered. Because we feel your personal visit to Olivet is so critical, we invite you to fly on us! Olivet will reimburse your airfare up to $500 for your visit to Olivet prior to June 1.
