Throughout the year we offer Campus Weekday Visits. During this time, prospective students will have an opportunity to receive a half-hour Admission Presentation, followed by an approximately one-hour campus tour led by our Student Ambassadors. In the course of your visit, you will acquire a great deal of knowledge about TCNJ, as our Admissions Counselors and Student Ambassadors address your questions on student life, college admissions and scholarship programs. In addition, you will have a chance to see one of our academic buildings, our dining facilities and (during Fall and Spring Campus Weekday Visits only) our first-year residence halls.  Discover TCNJ first hand!
