Visiting Campus
Brandeis strongly encourages prospective students and their families to visit its beautiful suburban campus at any time throughout the year. Although walk-in visitors are always welcome, we recommend scheduling ahead.
Tour and Information Session
Student-led tours, which last about one hour, are generally held several times a day, Monday through Friday, and at 11 a.m. on selected Saturdays. Tours leave from the Carl and Ruth Shapiro Admissions Center.
Information sessions, which last about 45 minutes, are generally held two times a day (10:15 a.m. and 2:15 p.m.) in the Shapiro Admissions Center. They are scheduled so that a tour is usually available before or after the program. To register, once at the calendar, select a tour date and time. This will take you to a registration form, where you can then select an information session time.

Interviews
On-campus interviews with an admissions representative are available to students beginning the summer prior to their senior year of high school. In addition, off-campus interviews with a Brandeis alum are available to prospective students during the fall and winter of their senior year.
Group Visits
For groups of 10 or more people, we ask that you submit a separate request. Please note that we are only able to accommodate group visits on Mondays - Fridays when the Office of Admissions is open.
Self-Guided Tour
If you are unable to make one of our regularly scheduled times, we encourage you to download a self-guided tour for your visit and contact us with any questions.
Special Information for Visitors with Disabilities
Because our campus is situated on a hill, some students, family members and visitors may wish to take a slower-paced tour. If you use a wheelchair, please contact the admissions office at 781-736-3500 at least one week before your visit.
Students or family members who have a hearing disability are also encouraged to contact the admissions office with special requests, such as ASL interpreters, prior to visiting campus. In order to secure an interpreter, please notify the admissions office at least three weeks in advance of your visit.
