Visiting Clark
Ways to Visit
There are several ways to visit Clark:
- Take a campus tour
- Go to a group information session
- Have an on-campus interview
- Request a personalized visit
Steps for planning your visit
You can customize your visit by combining several of these options in one day or choosing just one. Keep in mind that your most successful visit will be while classes are in session and our students are on campus. To customize your visit, follow these three steps:
- Choose the type of visit you want. You can choose multiple options in one day, including arranging a personalized visit. Whatever
you decide, check the visit calendar for availability and contact the Admissions Office to set up your visit.
- Take a Campus tour. A student-guided tour of the campus is a great way to discover Clark's facilities in addition to the atmosphere of the University. Tours are generally offered four times a day, Monday through Friday, during the academic year and twice a day during the summer. Tours are drop-in, so you do not need to make an official appointment to join. If you are unable to visit campus, we encourage you to take a virtual tour of the campus.
- Take a Visual and Performing Arts tour. Every Friday, while classes are in session, we offer tours of our Visual & Performing Arts (V&PA) facilities. Led by V&PA students, tours include the Traina Center for the Arts, Estabrook Hall and the Little Center. V&PA tours begin in late September for the fall semester and resume in February for the spring semester. Reservations are required for all V&PA tours. Check the visit calendar for availability and contact the Admissions Office to set up your visit
- Have an on-campus interview. An informational interview is strongly recommended as part of the application process because it is an opportunity for you to tell us about yourself and to find out if Clark offers what you want in a college. Interview appointments are available Monday through Friday, with the exception of certain holiday periods. Interviews are also offered on certain Saturdays in the fall and spring. Appointments are required for on-campus interviews. Check the visit calendar for availability and contact the Admissions Office to set up your visit
- Go to a group information session. Group sessions for prospective students and their families are available certain weekdays and Saturday mornings during the academic year. Information sessions are also available Monday through Friday in June, July and August. This is an opportunity to get a general overview of Clark and ask questions. Reservations are recommended for group information sessions. Check the visit calendar for availability and contact the Admissions Office to set up your visit
- Consider a personalized visit. You also have the option of having a one-on-one, personalized visit at Clark in addition to, or instead of, another type of
visit. A personalized visit lets you create an itinerary around your specific needs and interests. By scheduling a personalized
visit, you can tour the campus, meet with a professor, go to lunch with a "Clarkie," have an admissions interview,
attend classes, talk with a coach, speak with admissions staff, and/or talk to a financial aid counselor.
Please keep in mind that personalized visits are available during the academic year only. Personalized visits begin in late September for the fall semester and resume in February for the spring semester. A reservation is required to create your personalized visit. Please make your reservations at least a week in advance of your intended visit to campus.
