Group Visits

DFC Group Visits are a great way to introduce a group of high school juniors and/or seniors to the Dougherty Family College and the resources available to them. Group Visits are hosted on our Minneapolis campus on select days during the academic year. We are unable to accommodate group visits for freshmen, sophomores or middle school students. 

Additional spring dates will be listed later this fall.
