Can We Talk?
Saint Mary's College does not require interviews, but our admissions officers are eager to meet with you to discuss your interests, outline admission qualifications, and answer any of your questions. Please request an appointment when scheduling your tour.
Class Visits
Because our average class size is 21, our world-renowned faculty is extremely accessible to students. During the school year, prospective students are welcome to sit in on classes (except during mid-term and Finals Week). When you contact us to plan your visit, let us know the academic areas in which you are most interested so we can plan an appropriate class visit. Once in class, don't be surprised if you are invited to participate! Please call at least two weeks ahead to set up a class visit.
Let's Do Lunch!
Let us take you to lunch in Oliver Dining Hall. You'll be able to chat with current students as you sample food from our salad, soup, pasta, hot entrée, Mexican and sandwich bars. You may also wish to finish your meal with the desert of your choice. If you miss lunchtime in the dining hall, you can grab a bite at Café Louis, or the Firehouse Grill, located in Cassin Student Union.
RSVP
To arrange your visit to Saint Mary's College, please contact the Admissions Office at (925) 631-4983 or 1-800-800-4SMC.
