Campus Tour Stop

Wildcat statue in the snow

You’re at the Cat. This is where, as a new member of the Wildcat family, you’ll join the “Pat the 'Cat” tradition that has first-year students touching the Wildcat sculpture for good luck. Where 800 pounds of bronze represent the spirit and pride of being a Wildcat. Where you’ll take picture after picture capturing your UNH experience, from that first pat to commencement. Memories that will last a lifetime.


The Wildcat statue looks over us. Here is where you’ll start your UNH journey with a pat –and take the next step in your cap and gown. Where you’ll pause for all the memories and successes along the way.
