Virtual Visits & Opportunities
Live Virtual Campus Tour
Join current Boston College students on a live virtual tour of campus. Explore the Heights in real-time and engage your student tour guides in an interactive Q&A.
Eagle for a Discussion
If you've already participated in an on-campus or virtual Eagle Eye Campus Visit and would like to learn more about our campus community, consider registering for an Eagle for a Discussion. These 30 minute virtual chats will allow you to connect one-on-one with a current BC student.
Hosted by members of our Student Admission Program (SAP), these 30 minute one-on-one virtual discussions will allow you to ask the experts, our current students, specific questions about Boston College. Inquire about classes and professors, campus clubs and organizations, residential life, and more.
While geared towards rising seniors who may be narrowing down their college list, any prospective student interested in Boston College may register for a Discussion. We encourage you to prepare questions in advance.
Please note, these Discussions are not evaluative interviews for admission, but rather an opportunity for you to connect with a current BC student. Boston College does not offer interviews as part of the admission process.
Organization & High School Visits
Groups of 10 or more members of college access/readiness organizations or college-bound high school students are welcome to join us for a 60 minute virtual information session on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays during the spring.

These 60-minute virtual information sessions, led by an admission counselor and student panelists, are offered for groups of 10 or more members of college access/readiness organizations or college-bound students in their sophomore, junior, and senior years of high school. Attendees will be encouraged to ask questions. Please be advised that we traditionally include groups in our daily programming and do not provide private information sessions.
