Experience The College of New Jersey in an exciting way!

As our guest, we invite you to attend one or several of our visitation programs.

Campus Weekday Visits

Throughout the year we offer Campus Weekday Visits. During this time, prospective students will have an opportunity to receive a half-hour Admission Presentation and/or a one-hour campus tour led by our Student Ambassadors. In the course of your visit, you will acquire a great deal of knowledge about TCNJ, as our Admissions Counselors and Student Ambassadors address your questions on student life, college admissions and scholarship programs (to name a few). In addition, you will have a chance to see one of our academic buildings, our dining facilities and (when school is in session) our first-year residence halls.  Discover TCNJ first hand!

TCNJ Campus Weekday Visits are available on selected Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays from September 11th through December 4th.  Our flexible visitation schedule offers multiple campus tour times on these dates.  If you would also like to attend an Admissions Presentation, one will either precede or follow your tour at 10:30 AM or 2:00 PM.
