Guided Tours
- During the academic year, campus visits are held most weekdays (and select Saturdays in April, summer, and October), and include both an information session and guided tour.
- During the summer months, we offer information sessions and guided tours on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays (and select Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays). Please check the calendar above for availability.
- Information sessions last 30 minutes and are led by an Admission Officer, providing an overview of academic life at Occidental and an introduction to the application and financial aid process.
- Tours last 60 minutes and are led by a current student.
Self-Guided Tours
- Self-guided tours are available almost every day of the year and allow students and families the opportunity to explore campus on their own, without a tour guide, using our self-guided tour booklet and audio tour. Para descargar la autoguiada en español, oprima aquí.
- Please note that students and families are not able to enter campus buildings while on a self-guided tour, except for the Occidental Bookstore.
If you are unable to join us on-campus, we invite you to register for an online information session. The Office of Admission is also ready and available to help answer your questions at admission@oxy.edu or by calling (323) 259-2700.
