Visit Our Campus
The Barnard College Office of Admissions will be offering an abbreviated tour schedule over the winter holidays, during December 2024 and January 2025. No formal tours will be offered after Monday, December 9th, 2024, as our students enter into their exam period. Campus tours will resume after winter break, on Mondays and Fridays beginning Monday, January 20th until Friday, February 14th, 2025. Our normal schedule of tours on Monday, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays will resume on Monday, February 17th, 2025.
We welcome visitors to come to campus outside of these dates for a self-guided tour, where you can walk around campus and enjoy our Audio Tour, narrated by Barnard students. Staff is available to answer questions. If you are visiting with a school or program group, please use the Group Tour request form.
Please note: Due to campus access restrictions, we require all visitors and their guests to register their visit to campus 24 hours prior to visiting campus.
Campus Visit
Our one-hour campus tours cover academics, extracurricular experiences, community, and residential living and are led by Barnard student admissions representatives (BSARs). See our current tour dates and times here. Should you be in need of any accommodations during your visit, you can indicate this in the registration form.
PLEASE NOTE: CAMPUS WILL BE CLOSED TO VISITORS FROM DECEMBER 24 - JANUARY 1. WE WILL REOPEN ON JANUARY 2 FOR SELF-GUIDED TOURS. STUDENT-LED CAMPUS TOURS WILL BEGIN AGAIN ON JANUARY 17.
REGISTER FOR STUDENT-LED TOUR: Registration for tours will close 24 hours in advance so that we can ensure your registration is captured for our campus access requirement. All students are limited to two guests for the tour. If you have any additional guests joining your visit to campus (such as a sibling), please fill out the self-guided tour option for the additional guest(s) so that we can pre-register them for campus access.
