Visiting Williams

Campus Tours and Group Information Sessions

When visiting Williams, plan time to explore the whole campus. In addition to taking a campus tour and attending a group information session, talk to students, attend classes, read bulletin boards, take part in evening concerts or lectures, meet faculty and coaches, and investigate facilities. Allow at least a full morning or afternoon.

Campus Tours: No advance notice is required. Students lead all tours, which last approximately one hour and fifteen minutes.  All tours depart from the Office of Admission.

Group Information Sessions: No appointments are necessary. Admission staff lead these hour-long question and answer sessions which provide general information on the College as well as on admission and financial aid policies.

Campus tours and group information sessions are offered on weekdays throughout most of the year; we offer Saturday tours and information sessions during a period in the summer. When visiting near any holiday or college vacation period (as listed in the Academic Calendars) or during borderline dates on the schedules below, please call ahead to confirm tour and group information session times.
