One of the best ways to learn about Carleton is to register for an in-person campus tour!
Our passionate and knowledgeable team of campus tour guides are current Carleton students who can’t wait to share their stories about what it’s really like to be a Carleton student. We encourage prospective students and families to take a walking tour of our celebrated campus – at any time of the year!
- Parking:
When arriving on campus, please park in any visitor spot in P9, which is located next to Robertson Hall. Once parked, guests can report to the Tour Centre (209 Robertson Hall) where they must enter their license plate information with their Tour Guide to register their vehicle. Parking is compliments of Parking Services.
