Virtual and Self-Guided Tours
SOU believes the best way to experience campus is on one of our guided campus tours. However, if you are unable to visit during one of our scheduled tour times, you can take an interactive, virtual campus tour at sou.edu/virtual-tour.
You may also request a printable self-guided tour booklet (in pdf format) at admissions@sou.edu.
