Visit & Engage

An interview will not only provide us with a strong sense of your personal strengths and interests that may not be obvious in an application, it will also give you a chance to ask questions and learn more about Hamilton in a personal setting.

When classes are in session, prospective students who are visitors of the Admission Office are generally welcome to sit in on classes. We encourage you to arrive five to ten minutes before the class begins to introduce yourself to the professor and to make sure the content for that day is appropriate (not an exam day, etc.).

Video information sessions are held once per month, on select Wednesdays. Led by an admission dean, these 30 minute sessions provide an opportunity to learn more about the College, explore Hamilton’s Promise, and have your questions answered.

From exploring our community to details about the application and financial aid process, you’ll hear from Admission Officers, students, faculty, and other Hamilton community members in these online sessions throughout the summer and fall.

Should you require assistance in scheduling your campus visit, please reach out to Courtney Combs, Admission Visit Coordinator, at ccombs@hamilton.edu.

If you need financial assistance to visit campus, we offer limited travel reimbursement on a competitive, ad hoc basis to subsidize a portion of the costs associated with visiting campus for high school seniors who wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity to do so. For more information, please contact Rachel Clarey, Assistant Dean of Admission, at rclarey@hamilton.edu.
