Visit Heinz College
The best way to learn about a university is to actually visit campus and interact with students and faculty. Whether you come for an individual visit, attend a group information session or our Fall Visitation Weekend, we’re ready to help you design your own Carnegie Mellon experience.
As a prospective student, we encourage you to explore our programs, Pittsburgh, our campus and student lifestyle by visiting. Campus visitors are welcome Mondays through Thursdays, when classes are in session. Class visits, tours, meetings with students and faculty are among the options available when you visit. These activities will give you insight to life at Heinz and its impact on your career.
Additionally, prospective students for our part-time programs are welcome to arrange an evening class visit or attend a Saturday information session.
For more information or to register for an event, visit our upcoming events calendar, click the events link to the right or call us at 412-268-2164.
With so many academic, extracurricular and social opportunities at your disposal, the best way to decide if Carnegie Mellon is right for you is to visit our campus and explore Pittsburgh, recently named one of America’s most livable cities by Rand McNally.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
