In-Person Visits

Ready to see the beauty of Hanover for yourself?

Each visit includes a walking tour of campus and a meeting with an admission counselor, but there are plenty of ways to customize your experience. For example, you may request to meet with a professor in your area of academic interest or chat with a coach. These visits are offered on weekdays throughout the year. An in-person tour and admission meeting should last two hours. You should allow for one hour per additional activity on your itinerary.

To ensure your visit meets all of your expectations, we ask that you schedule it at least one week in advance.
