Whether you'll be driving or flying into Melbourne, we want your journey to Florida Tech to be as enjoyable as your stay here, so we have compiled some helpful information, advice and resources to help you plan your visit.
While you and your family are always welcome to stop by campus any time, we highly recommend signing up for a Daily Visit or registering for an Exploration Day or Discovery Day. Even if you know you will be in Melbourne on a day when the Office of Undergraduate Admission is closed, reach out! We'd love to help you with directions and give you some tips about what to do both on and around campus.
When you register for your visit to Florida Tech, we will send you a printable Visitor Parking Pass. All vehicles parked on campus must have a parking pass clearly displayed in order to avoid being ticketed. If you are unable to print your parking pass or you forget to bring it, we will gladly provide a new one when you check-in. (If you forget this one and get a ticket, let us know and we'll help get it taken care of for you.)
