For all other group tour requests, contact the Harvard University Visitor Center, which offers historical campus tours led by current students.

SEAS Tours: Supplemental tours of our School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) are available directly through the school. Click on the link in the section below to learn more and register. These tours take place in the Science and Engineering Complex at 150 Western Avenue, Allston, MA 02134. 

Self-guided visit/tour: If you visit campus without registering for an admissions-led session or tour, we encourage you to explore our self-guided tour options to learn about Harvard's landmarks. Self-guided tours allow you to explore campus at your own pace. You can visit all of our official tour stops (and more!) while getting all the information that would be provided by a student guide through our tour video and interactive virtual tour resources. You may also stop by our Admissions Visitor Center to speak with our staff and ask questions

We invite you to learn more about Harvard College by attending one of our online information sessions. In our online information sessions, an admission officer and an undergraduate student will present information and answer questions about academics, student life, admissions and financial aid at Harvard College.

Harvard partners with other colleges and universities to host combined information sessions so prospective students can learn about multiple institutions in one event. These sessions are hosted across the United States, and are typically held each fall and spring. Read below for more information.

STORY Information Sessions 

STORY (Small Town Outreach Recruitment and Yield) is a consortium of colleges and universities across the United States committed to increasing access and support for students who identify as rural or from a small town. The consortium travels to smaller towns to offer a general presentation on college admissions terminology and processes as well as to offer a college fair with the 25-30 participating colleges each fall and spring. Colleges and Universities participating in STORY include private and public institutions that vary in size. Harvard looks forward to meeting students where they are and sharing more about our admissions and financial aid programs from a unique perspective and what a transition might be like for a student from a small town to Harvard College.
