Secondary School Curriculum
To show significant evidence of your academic achievement and preparation, it's important to take the most challenging classes (i.e. Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate) at your secondary school. In addition, some Haverford departments will allow you to forego introductory-level courses in areas in which you've already completed rigorous work, and you also may receive college credit.
Interviews
If you live within 150 miles of the Haverford campus (including New York City, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C.), we strongly recommend that you have an on-campus interview. Interviews are generally available beginning in April of your junior year through January 15 of your senior year. Please e-mail pschramm@haverford.edu or call (610) 896-1350 to schedule in advance; the earlier you call, the more likely a convenient interview slot will be available. As a high school senior, you may also schedule an overnight visit during certain periods of the school year; again, the earlier you call, the more likely a host will be available. If you don’t live within 150 miles of campus, we still recommend you interview on campus if at all possible. Otherwise, please contact us after Labor Day about scheduling an interview with an alumnus or alumna near your home. Whether or not you have an interview, you may do any of the following without making a prior appointment:
- Join an hour-long campus tour given by a student tour guide.
- Have lunch in the student dining center.
- Visit a class.
- Explore on your own schedule. Our campus is open, and you can pick up a map and self-guided tour brochure at the Admission Office.
Tours
Campus tours are given often. All tours start in the admission office, which is located on the second floor of the Whitehead Campus Center. There is no need to make a reservation for a campus tour. For more specific tour schedules and information, please call the admission office at 610-896-1350 or check out the Office of Admission Web site.
Campus Visits
A campus visit is a great opportunity to take a tour of the college, have lunch in the student dining center, see a class in action and meet some of the students with whom you might be spending the next four years. Many Haverford College head coaches will help you arrange a campus visit, or you can set up a visit through the admission office by calling 610-896-1350.
