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. Learn about the different decision plans by reviewing our checklist for first-year applicants.
Scheduling a Visit for Students
The best way to learn about Furman is to see it and meet the people who know the university best — students, faculty, and staff. Please encourage your students to visit!
