Visit

Come and Visit

We strongly recommend that you visit Earlham's campus and interview with one of our counselors. Together, the visit and the interview are invaluable tools for helping you and us discover whether Earlham is the right college for you.

Your personal experiences on the campus, in the classrooms and residence halls, and with the students and faculty can be significant to your decision-making process. You and your parents are welcome to visit campus throughout the year.

Types of Visits

Earlham College offers five visit-day experiences for high school students to learn more about Earlham’s distinctive approach to the liberal arts. Many of these opportunities include overnight stays for applicants or admitted high school and transfer students to explore life as an Earlhamite.

 

Introductory interviews and tours for high school and transfer students Monday to Friday year-round, excluding certain holidays.
