We’d Love to See You!

The Office of Admission is pleased to offer guided tours for prospective students, families, and guardians. Registration is required for a campus tour and information session. We also offer a self-guided walking tour option—the map can be found outside the Office of Admission Building, located at 7 College Lane.

If you have a group of ten or more students from your school or community-based organization, we would be happy to meet with your group on campus or virtually. To schedule a group meeting, please fill out the Group Visit Request form. We require at least three weeks advance notice to schedule a group visit.

Virtual Information Sessions

Led by an admission staff member and at least one current Smithie, our Zoom information sessions provide the opportunity for you to learn more about Smith and have your questions answered. We’ll share information about Smith’s distinctive academic opportunities, life on campus, the admission process, financial aid, and more. There will also be plenty of time for you to ask your questions during the live Q&A portion of the session.

Current Smithie Chats

We know that one of the most important voices to hear during the college search process is that of current students. This is why we are offering regular informal chats with current Smithies. Hear all about what it’s like to live, work, and study at Smith and ask any questions you may have.
