The Hampton University campus rests along the scenic banks of historic Hampton, Virginia. But don’t let your exploration stop there. Check out the surrounding Hampton Roads area, where you’re only minutes away from the variety of Newport News, the urban excitement of Norfolk, the oceanfront resort of Virginia Beach, the rural scenery of Chesapeake, the seaport antiquity of Portsmouth, and the Colonial-era history of Williamsburg.

In addition to living and dining on the HU campus, you’re also close to excellent local lodging and dining attractions. If it’s excitement you’re looking for, just look around you. From the Virginia Air & Space Center to Busch Gardens Williamsburg to the Chrysler Museum of Art, there’s plenty to see and do whenever you need a break from studying.
