Nestled on the Canadian border, where Lake Superior meets the St. Marys River, Lake Superior State University (LSSU) offers an unparalleled academic experience surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty. Explore expansive green spaces, wander along scenic boardwalks, or kayak on the world’s largest freshwater lake – all within steps of your classroom.
LSSU’s facilities cater to your academic and recreational needs. Study in cutting-edge science labs, collaborate in modern classrooms, or get creative in art studios boasting panoramic lake views. Take a break between classes at the fitness center, enjoy a meal with friends at the waterfront café, or unwind at the student union, complete with bowling alleys and game rooms. Whether you’re seeking academic excellence or outdoor adventure, LSSU’s vibrant campus has something for everyone.
Lake Superior State University will be hosting an open house event, on Saturday, October 19th, featuring campus and experiential lab tours, academic information, campus life highlights, and a preview of your life at Lake State!

Lake Superior State University is more than just an institution; it is home to a community of students, faculty, and staff. It’s our job to make you, our guest on campus, feel as at home as we do! When you tour our campus, you will have the opportunity to meet with one of our admissions representatives and students who will answer questions about what it means to be a Laker and attend LSSU. Whether you are a transfer student or still in high school, a guidance counselor, or a parent, you are always welcome.
Planning a visit to Lake Superior State University includes a tour of the campus, residence halls, student life, and athletic facilities. Our admissions staff will provide a presentation or informal discussion on program areas, campus life, tuition, and scholarships. The campus visit includes a walking tour—led by current Lake Superior State University students—that lasts approximately 60 minutes. In addition to the standard tour, guests may request to visit with faculty members or representatives from specific offices (e.g., financial aid, housing, athletics, club sports).
Admissions can offer group tours upon request. For groups of 10 or more, please call the admissions office at 906-635-2231 or email [email protected] to discuss scheduling.
