Summer SEAS Tours (2018)

SEAS Tours

Take a student-led supplemental tour focused on Harvard’s undergraduate programs in engineering and the applied sciences (including applied mathematics, biomedical engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, engineering sciences, and mechanical engineering).

The tour, led by SEAS staff and students concentrating in the sciences and engineering, provides an overview of pursuing a technical degree in a liberal arts context, undergraduate research opportunities, related student groups and competitions, and support for entrepreneurship and innovation.

The SEAS tour will not cover the Harvard College (undergraduate) admissions process. To learn more about admissions and financial aid, please visit the office of Harvard College Admissions and Financial Aid. You may also attend the Harvard College Admissions information session and tour.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do I need to print out my Eventbrite Ticket?

No, it is not necessary to print your ticket as we can easily find registered guests through the Eventbrite Check-in process on the day of the event.

Can I bring additional guests that were not registered or not taken off of the waitlist in case there are cancellations?

We kindly ask that you do not bring additional guests beyond those that registered for your selected tour time. Any cancellation that is made is automatically designated to the next person on the waitlist, up until the start of the tour. All tours are capped at a certain level due to the availability of tour guides and the capacity for guests in the lab spaces which make it difficult to accomodate additional requests.

What are my transport/parking options getting to the event?

Please visit the Getting to SEAS webpage for information about maps and directions by subway and car. Please make sure to bring quarters if you plan to park at the metered parking spots (SEAS staff will not have quarters available).

Will I have time to attend both the Harvard College Admissions Information Session and Tour and SEAS Tour?

Yes! The 8:30am or 12:30pm SEAS Tours will allow individuals to attend both the SEAS tours and Harvard College Admissions Information Session and Tour. You will have to walk over from the Harvard College Admissions Visitor Center located in the Agassiz House in Radcliffe Yard (5 James Street, Cambridge, MA 02138) or Memorial Hall (45 Quincy Street, Cambridge, MA 02138). Please check their website to learn which venue will be used during your visit (https://college.harvard.edu/admissions/visit/tours-information-sessions).
