Dumb question regarding Claremonts

Anonymous
If you visit, do you pick a specific campus/school to visit, or do you visit all of the schools? Any advice/perspective would be helpful. Thanks

Each school has their own admission office and own tours. But you can probably fit in two official tours in the day if you coordinate the early and late sessions.

Then just walk around and get the flavor of the other schools if you want. They are extremely integrated so the boundaries blur, and its an open campus.

You pick a specific school, and will tour with a guide representing that school.

Download Guidebook, and tour the campus at your own pace. It’s about 10 or 12 blocks north to south and west to east.

Yes, pick 1-2 for a tour and walk the rest. The campuses are completely contiguous.

Great place!!

Was just there last month. Beautiful place, and easy to walk around all the campuses.

We toured three over two days.

If interested and all the way there, I think the tours are important. Walking the campus is nice but doesn't give you a lot of info.

DC is at Pitzer - we toured Pomona, CMC and Mudd then they walked around campus on their own and did some research. Our Pomona tour guide was awful. DC applied ED to Pitzer and is thrilled to be there now.

DS graduated last spring and misses it. Also, DC has had great grad school admissions outcomes, which has been nice and confirmed some of the 5Cs reputation that we had heard.

I have a niece and nephew at Pitzer and they both are having a positive experience. There are many benefits of attending given the ability to take advantage of the consortium and the resources available.

Tours are for specific schools. You should tour more than one school while you're there. Also, take time to walk around the ones that you do not take a tour of.

Surprised your Ed choice was changed because of one student.
