Visiting GSAS
Located just nine miles outside of Boston, Brandeis University sits atop a beautifully landscaped campus in Waltham, Massachusetts. As you walk around campus and explore the Waltham/Boston area, you will begin to get a sense of the vicinity’s rich cultural history, wealth of educational resources for graduate students, and abundant cultural and recreational opportunities. The Boston area’s public transportation system—the “T”—connects Brandeis with greater Boston. The T makes destinations in Waltham, Boston, Cambridge, and beyond readily accessible for everything from off-campus housing to internships and research opportunities for master’s, doctoral, and post-baccalaureate students. Our location extends the breadth and depth of your Brandeis graduate school education via the many resources at one of our Boston Graduate School consortium institutions.
We encourage all prospective students to visit campus and see all that Brandeis University and the greater Boston area has to offer. Come to campus and meet with the professors who will become your mentors and the classmates who will become your professional contacts and peers. We truly believe that a visit to Brandeis University's Graduate School of Arts and Sciences could help to solidify your decision to pursue graduate study here.
If you would like to attend a class and meet with professors in your department, please contact your department directly. See the complete list of our graduate programs with links to their pages with contact information. While the Graduate School does not offer campus tours, all prospective students are welcome to take a tour offered through the Office of Undergraduate Admission. You may sign-up for a tour by complete the online reservation form here.
The Waltham and Greater Boston page provides additional links to help you plan your visit (including places to stay, eat, public transit information, and weather conditions).
We look forward to seeing you on campus!
