Going to college is more than just classes and studying. For four years, you’ll live here. And although that story looks different for every Grinnellian, on-campus and virtual visits are the best ways to see what yours could look like.
Come experience our living and learning community in person.
A visit to Grinnell can include an information session, student-led campus tour, meal in the dining hall, interview, financial aid appointment, and more.
Learn how can you make the most of your campus visit beyond the typical tour and information session by exploring our visit options, which vary based on time of year.
A college visit is more than just a chance for you to explore our campus — it can increase your likelihood of admission. Learn what “demonstrated interest” is.

Online interviews are an optional but great way to share more about yourself. You may only interview once, and interviews for domestic students are available from May of your junior year through mid-December of your senior year. International students, you may request an interview up until the deadline through which you are applying.
Whether you want to discuss philosophy or the weather in Iowa, our current students and admission staff are happy to help.
