Margaret S. Sugden Welcome Center
About the Business
Welcome to the Margaret S. Sugden Welcome Center, your gateway to exploring the vibrant campus of Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) in Fort Myers, Florida. Conveniently located just past the parking information booth at the main entrance, the Welcome Center is often referred to as the university's "living room." Here, our friendly team is eager to assist you with all the information you need to navigate our campus and make the most of your visit.
At the Welcome Center, you can pick up brochures, maps, and admissions information, as well as discover interesting university trivia and receive recommendations for the best local dining and shopping spots. Whether you're a prospective student, a visiting family member, or a curious traveler, our knowledgeable staff is here to ensure your FGCU experience is both informative and enjoyable.
Open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and closed on all university holidays, the Margaret S. Sugden Welcome Center is a proud member of the Collegiate Information and Visitor Services Association. This affiliation highlights our commitment to providing outstanding service to all our visitors.
The Welcome Center stands as a testament to the generosity of Herb and Peg Sugden, whose contributions have significantly shaped our campus. Their initial gift in 2001 made this facility possible, and their subsequent donations have continued to enhance FGCU's offerings, including the establishment of the Resort and Hospitality Management degree program housed in Herbert J. Sugden Hall.
As you explore our campus, you'll also notice the Sugden Clock Tower, a signature feature that adds to the university's charm. The Sugdens' legacy extends beyond FGCU, as they have been benefactors to numerous arts, education, and community initiatives in Naples.
We invite you to start your FGCU journey at the Margaret S. Sugden Welcome Center, where our team is ready to help you discover everything our university and the surrounding Southwest Florida community have to offer.

Reviews
"Nice building and campus overall. The age of the school itself is quite young, but I find that refreshing. I think some of these old campuses are out of touch with some of the academics required here and now. This school seems to be adapting to the challenges presented in this day and age."
"Lauren at Welcome center was super friendly and helpful to a grandad of a potential new student grandson"
"We are on a college tour. Very friendly reception at FCGU. Pretty campus."
"Cool Campus Tour..."
"I wish my child was going here. He opted for Montclair State in Jersey ... Florida Gulf Coast University is like a resort.. The services for the business majors are amazing.. They seem to care about the students and wants everyone to succeed.."
