Residence halls are optional at the end of the tour.
Masking is not required at the College, but you are welcome to wear a mask at any time. If you are feeling sick, you may reschedule your visit, or we highly recommend wearing a 3-ply medical mask, a 3-ply medical mask with a cloth mask on top, N95, KN95, or a KF94 to help protect the health and safety of our community.
