Arrange a Visit

The best way to find out if Carnegie Mellon is the "right" school for you is to visit our campus.  Because prospective undergraduate applications are administered through the university's Undergraduate Admissions office, tours, interviews and information sessions should be arranged through that office.  Group information sessions take place Monday through Friday in the summer, Saturdays in the fall and April.  You may also interview with a member of the admission staff.

To schedule a group information session or interview, call (412) 268-2082 on any weekday from 8:30 a.m. - 5 p.m. Eastern Time or request an interview or group information session.

Arrange a Visit with a Current MechE Student

The Mechanical Engineering (MechE) Department offers tours during the Fall and Spring semesters every Monday and Friday at 11:30am. (If there are no classes the department tours may not available.) Reservations are not required- simply be present at the Scaife Hall first floor lobby at 11:30am. A current MechE student will review the curriculum, organizations, clubs and activities, lab space, the machine shop, and other components of the MechE Department. 

From March 26th - April 27th there will be a tour each week day - Monday - Friday at 11:30am in Scaife Hall. Due to current student demands we are unable to offer tours at a different time. Reservations are not required- simply be present at Scaife Hall first floor lobby at 11:30am. 

Please note that "drop in" visitors cannot be accommodated. If you are planning a visit over the summer please submit your request by email to mechmail@andrew.cmu.edu; at least a week in advance be sure to include the date of your visit and options when you are available to meet.  You may also leave voicemail at 412 268-2500.  Evening and weekend appointments are not available.
