As summer draws to a close and college application season kicks off, you might be thinking about visiting your top college campuses. By opting to visit TCU, you'll discover the beauty of our campus and immerse yourself in the unique experience of being a Horned Frog, a feeling that's truly one of a kind!

When you schedule a campus tour during the academic year, you'll have a 30-minute session with a TCU admission counselor, followed by a 90-minute walking tour led by one of our student ambassadors. Make sure to ask them questions about their student experience! Find more details and book your tour.

In addition to year-round campus tours, TCU hosts several events throughout the year for our applicants and prospective students to get a preview of what it looks like to be a Horned Frog.

Monday at TCU allows prospective students to learn a little bit more about what TCU has to offer. You'll experience a day in the life of being a Horned Frog as you chat with faculty who specialize in your academic interest and tour residence halls. You'll meet students and staff at interest sessions on financial aid, the honors college and more. Reserve a spot for one of our Monday at TCU dates now; these events fill up fast.

  • Schedule a visit that works best for you! You can see dates and times to schedule a tour by visiting the TCU Admission website under the Campus Visit section.
