Online Engagement Opportunities

You don't have to travel to Pittsburgh to get a sense of Carnegie Mellon

Whatever you want to learn about Carnegie Mellon, you'll be able to find the information you need online. Take a live virtual tour, engage with current students, join a digital information session or get one-on-one online admission counseling. There are all kinds of ways to discover whether this is your kind of place.

Types of Opportunities

When you can't come to campus, Carnegie Mellon can come to you virtually. Check out these opportunities to engage with admission counselors, students and campus community members from wherever you are in the world.
