We realize that the COVID-19 pandemic, with its related school closures and social distancing directives, may be overshadowing other things happening in your life right now — but we hope you will take a moment to celebrate your admission to Hamilton! Please know that we are working hard to organize a host of virtual welcome and visit events over the coming weeks in place of the Open House that we had planned to hold in mid-April.
Upcoming Virtual Events
We were pleased to welcome so many of you to our virtual events for accepted students. As May 1 draws near, you may want to watch these events again, or catch some that you missed the first time around. They are available below, as recordings, in the ‘Important Messages’ section.
