Visit Campus
When Should You Visit?...
Anytime during your college search.
The best way to learn about Bennington is to visit campus, especially while classes are in session. Call 800-833-6845 or email the Admissions Office to set up an individualized visit—sit in on classes, go to an event, walk around campus, and talk with students and faculty who share your interests.
Bennington interviews are brief conversations, usually exploring a student’s educational interests and ideas. Interviews are conducted by current students, alumni, or admissions counselors, and may be in person or by telephone. Interviews are offered for as many prospective students and applicants as possible (not required).
