Pull on your boots, grab your hat, and saddle up for Homecoming 2025—October 13–19! Celebrating Homecoming is a great way for students to connect with alumni, build community, collaborate with other organizations through friendly competition, and maybe even win some prize money and bragging rights.
Whether you’re painting your banner to be hung in Plemmons Student Union, cheering on your friends during LipSync, or catching up with alumni at the tailgate, this week is all about coming home and showing your Mountaineer pride. Last fall, Hurricane Helene brought unexpected challenges, but we are Mountain Strong! This Homecoming lineup has something for every Mountaineer. Mark your calendar, dress in black and gold, and celebrate all things App State!
