I was wondering what is the proper attire to wear for an admitted student's day. Since there is no direct faculty interaction for the most part, should we wear a formal suit, or is jeans, cardigan, dress top/ blouse acceptable? I assume there will be a lot of walking and would like to be comfortable but still well-dressed.

dress professionally, does not need to be full on interview attire, but you should not stand out and be "that guy/girl"
there will likely be picture taking and presentations
there may be informal faculty/staff interactions, and i would bet that the student services/admissions staff and perhaps the dean and/or assistant deans may check in
yes, comfortable walking shoes are necessary
there will be a range of attire, so anything goes, but it's best not to stand out to your new classmates/upperclassmen/faculty/staff

Business casual is a safe bet, you can also ask your classmates what they're doing and/or current students

I wouldn’t wear a suit. You can just dress casually and be fine. Don’t overthink it either
