The Appalachian Experience

Ever wonder what it is like to be an Appalachian State University student? From the day a new student moves to Boone to the day he/she graduates--and all the excitement, challenges, and life-changing experiences in between--this film captures the full range of the Appalachian student experience. While you watch, imagine yourself at Appalachian.

The Appalachian Experience is shown to visiting students and families as part of our campus tour. During the tour, visitors meet with Admissions representatives to learn about our academic programs, the admissions process; and take a walking tour led by a student ambassador.
