You should know

When planning your trip, remember your visit to campus is for your informational purposes only. Stanford does not track visitors or conduct on-campus interviews as part of the undergraduate admission process. Prospective students are encouraged to visit on a weekday because most departments, including the Undergraduate Admission Office, are closed on weekends.
