Applying in January? Plan Your Visit to Tuck

If you are applying in the January Round, I strongly encourage you to visit us and take advantage of our open interview policy.

Interviewing before you submit your application will inform your "why Tuck" essay and will help you articulate why you think Tuck is a good fit for you and you for Tuck. I have heard many current students say that are were glad that they made the time and commitment to visiting Tuck when they were prospective students because it helped them get a better sense of what Tuck is all about. While you may hear and read a lot about the environment, you won’t know what it’s truly like until you actually experience it first-hand.

I've been here for two years and have seen every applicant pass through these doors and of the things I frequently hear from them is how glad they are that they visited.

When you register for an interview, your visit will also include a lunch and tour with Tuck students, a Q&A session with an Admissions Officer and if possible, a chance to sit in on a first year class.  Not only does it offer us a chance to get to know you better, but it’s a great opportunity see what an exceptional and welcoming community Tuck truly is.

Of course, we understand that there may be circumstances that prevent you from visiting us, and that's ok. We do interview candidates by invitation, so you don't need to have interviewed and visited to submit your application.

Please register for an interview as soon as possible since interviews tend to book quickly.

I look forward to seeing you soon and hope that you enjoy your visit to Tuck!
