Counselors
Thank you for your interest in Furman. We want to partner with you to better serve your students and their families in their college search process. The information below will give you a snapshot of our campus and everything it has to offer.
Application process and requirements
Furman applicants are required to complete the Common Application and the Furman Supplement to the Common Application. We also ask school counselors to submit a School Report so that we can learn about the courses and programs offered at your school. Each applicant can choose between three decision plans. Review our first-year applicant checklist to learn about our different application plans.
Scheduling a visit for students
