Group Visits

Carleton welcomes groups for specialized tours on a case-by-case basis. Please fill out the form below at least one month in advance of your visit and we'll be in touch about your options.

Important notes about group visits: 

• A typical visit includes a 30min information session followed by a ~60min tour
• Tours happen rain or shine (or sleet or snow), so bring appropriate weather gear 
• Beyond an information session and campus tour, you may request a student panel and/or an on-campus lunch
• To eat lunch in the dining halls, every member of your group must be vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19; options for boxed lunches will be available if your group does not meet that requirement
• We recommend you visit Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday due to tour guide availability
• We cannot accommodate more than 50 students and 5 chaperones at this time
• We require 1 chaperone from your organization for every 10 students who will be attending
• We cannot accommodate visits of students younger than high school
