We offer open houses on campus to prospective students periodically throughout the year.
Summer Information Days
Every Friday throughout the summer (except July 4) rising high school seniors and their families are invited to come to campus for a tour, information session, and student panel. The day will begin at 8:30 a.m. with a light breakfast and end at 12:30 p.m. We will be meeting at Ida Noyes Hall (not the admissions office) at 1212 E 59th Street (the yellow house in the interactive map below).

As in any large city, parking can be a challenge. If you choose to drive to campus (and there are alternatives), please allow an extra 30 minutes to secure a parking space and walk to Ida Noyes Hall. Street parking may be available, though spaces are difficult to find after 7:30 a.m.
We recommend that visitors park at the University of Chicago Hospitals garage, three blocks west of the admissions office, at 59th Street and Maryland Avenue (the blue parking symbol on the left of the interactive map). Park your car and bring the ticket to the admissions office for a discounted validation sticker. The price is $6.00 for 24 hours.
The visitors’ garage at 55th Street and Ellis Avenue provides parking for $4.00 per hour with a $20.00 maximum charge (the blue parking symbol at the top of the map above). Parking is free from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. and on weekends and holidays. We do not have validation stickers for this lot.
