Visiting Campus

Horizon House, the home of the Office of Admission

For prospective students

A visit to our beautiful campus in New London is the best way for you to understand what a Connecticut College experience will be like and whether the College is a good fit.

Before you come to discover the Connecticut College community first hand, watch an aerial tour of the campus. 

When on campus, we invite you to take a tour, attend an information session, schedule an interview and get to know us. To plan your visit, view our admission calendar as the times and frequency with which tours and information sessions are offered vary according to the date. There is no need to call ahead when arranging your visit as we do not require reservations.

The Horizon Admission Building is where all interviews will be held, and student-led tours and information sessions begin. Find detailed driving directions and a campus map to help you reach us. If special accommodations are needed, please contact the Office of Admission at 860-439-2200.

Visitors may park in staff or faculty parking in the Office of Admission parking lot if they find our visitor parking occupied.

Throughout the month of April, there will be an influx of campus visitors. Please note that parking is limited in the lot adjacent to the Office of Admission. Additional parking is available in South Lot, a short walk from our Horizon Admission building. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience.

We look forward to having you on campus!

Connecticut College is located in New London in southeastern Connecticut. We are easily reached from Hartford, Providence, Boston and New York City by car, train, and bus, and from points beyond by rail and air. Get directions.
