All interested students are highly encouraged to visit our campus to discover the unique nature of our location, the benefits of our academic community, and to help you decide if Marlboro College is right for you.

Tours
Please allow an hour and a half for a student-led tour. Admissions staff are available prior to and after tours to address your questions.
Classes
Observing our discussion-based classes is perhaps one of the best ways to get a real sense of the academic environment in which our students and faculty engage. As there are a variety to choose from, we'll recommend appropriate classes to visit when you come to campus. Our current students will escort you to the class of your choice, so that you arrive on time. You may leave the class early. We welcome you to review current courses under the Academics page if you'd like to plan your visit around a particular course, keeping in mind that class times and dates are subject to change.
Overnights
The Admissions Office can arrange student-hosted overnight campus visits Monday through Thursday during the academic year. Please call to schedule at least one week in advance. From March through May, priority will be given to accepted students.
Interviews
Interviews are required only for transfer students who would enter as sophomores and juniors.
If you are applying as a freshman, interviews are not required. However, if you are interested in an interview, one may be requested one week in advance. Please register online with The Common Application prior to scheduling the interview.
If you are an applicant who is interested in an interview, but unable to visit campus, a phone interview may be arranged instead.
Many applicants' interview questions and answers can be found on the Applicant Interview FAQ.
Weekend Visitors
For those who come to campus during the weekend, we offer self-guided tour pamphlets just outside the admissions entrance. Please sign our guestbook, and feel free to take a walking tour of campus. Explore the buildings and learn a bit about their history as well as other distinctive aspects of our community.
