Visiting Campus During the Fall 2009
Visiting our campus will help you to make an informed decision about whether Lafayette College is the right fit for you. Please take advantage of the opportunity to participate in an on-campus interview, group information session and/or student-led tour. All of these options provide the means for you to learn more about the many programs and opportunities available to our students. Group information sessions are hour-long interactive presentations led by a member of the admissions staff, while an interview provides a prospective student with the opportunity to sit down, one-on-one, with an admissions officer. Visitors to campus requiring special assistance, such as a wheelchair, should call our office at (610) 330-5100 in advance of their visit so we can make the arrangements. Please note that families requiring a handicap accessible entrance to Markle Hall should enter through the back of the building to the human resources office and then use the elevator up to the first floor where the admissions office is located.
