"Visiting MIT this summer (part 1)"
by Matt McGann '00 • It is now high season for visiting colleges. I plan to do a series of entries on how to visit MIT and Boston this summer. For those of you who plan to visit, please leave your questions in the comments; I will answer them in future entries. For families who have already visited, feel free to leave your advice on visiting MIT and Boston in the comments; I will pass that advice on in the posts to come.

Campus Tours & Info Sessions

Admissions information sessions and student-led campus tours are offered twice daily, Monday through Friday from mid-March to mid-December. During the admissions application reading season, from the beginning of December to mid-March, only tours are offered (no tours December 15, 2008 - January 2, 2009). Please note that holidays and Institute events affect our visiting schedule periodically throughout the year; please check the visiting schedule below for specific details.

If you are attending an information session, plan to arrive at the session room at least 15 minutes early, as locations may change during peak visiting times (e.g. summer months). If you arrive more than a half an hour early, please feel free to stop by the Admissions Reception Center (Room 10-100), visit the MIT Coop bookstore (W20-104 and NE20), or grab a bite to eat at the Student Center (W20).

No reservations or prior notification is necessary, except for groups of 10 or more. In this case, groups must contact the Information Center via email at privatetour@mit.edu or by phone at
617-253-4795 at least two weeks in advance to make arrangements.

Please leave plenty of time to arrive for your visit, especially since there are several construction projects going on all around campus. For more information and a map of the construction areas, see The Evolving MIT Campus.

To learn as much as you can about MIT while you're on campus, please see the Making The Most Of Your Visit section for ideas - including visiting departments, attending undergraduate classes, meeting with a coach and much more.
