STARKVILLE, Miss.—Mississippi State’s Spring Preview Day organizers are readying for thousands of prospective Bulldogs and their families to explore and learn more about the MSU and SEC experience on April 10.
Registration is now open at https://www.admissions.msstate.edu/visit/preview-day and is $10 per person. While geared toward high school juniors, Spring Preview Day is open to all potential students, including high schoolers and community college and university transfers.
When arriving at MSU’s Humphrey Coliseum, participants will be welcomed by students representing a variety of leadership organizations and receive an information packet and MSU T-shirt, before being immersed in a wide range of events throughout campus and Starkville. The city of Starkville is known as the “Best Small Town in the South,” a title garnered in 2024 and 2025 from USA Today voters.
Sally Rutland, associate director of Orientation and Events, said that partnering with the Greater Starkville Development Partnership and MSU Athletics “showcases the full SEC experience and highlights all of the many things happening this entire weekend in April.”
Spring Preview Day participants can attend the city’s annual King Cotton Crawfish Fest and Kites and Rainbow Run, along with the university’s International Fiesta, the Diamond Dawgs’ baseball series with Tennessee and other athletic events. Several events are free and others have a fee separate from Spring Preview Day.
