| Come Visit |
|---|
If you are considering West Point for college, we invite you to come for a visit. We have day tours and schedules for you and your family to meet with cadets and staff. This is the best way to become familiar with West Point – both as a top-ranked college and a military academy.
A drive into the campus is awesome in beauty, architecture and history – you can see it and feel it. We invite you to experience it for yourself and, at the same time, give us a chance to get to know you better, too. During your visit, think about what it would be like to be a West Point cadet. Ask questions, take a tour, talk with cadets. |
