Hampshire College

The admissions office aims to assist prospective students and their families in learning as much as possible about Hampshire and why the college's differences matter. While the Hampshire Web site offers a wide range of information, prospective students are urged to complete the Information Request Form. The admissions office will send you Hampshire’s viewbook and information about specific areas of academic interest, as well as application materials. We can also keep you updated about Hampshire events (school visits, college fairs, information sessions, interview opportunities, etc.) that may be happening in your community.

Although much can be discovered from this Web site, the admissions staff is delighted to respond to your questions. Feel free to call us during regular business hours at 877.937.4267 (toll free) or follow the link below to submit your questions to the admissions office; questions may also be directed to a current Hampshire student or graduate.

Ask the Admissions Staff
Questions regarding the admissions process, policies, or general questions about Hampshire’s academic program, structure, or offerings may be directed here. If you are uncertain to whom you would like to direct your question, this is the best place to do so.

Ask a Current Hampshire Student
Wondering about what campus life is really like? What is it like to go to college in New England after having grown up in California? Every effort will be made to direct your message to a student who shares your interests or is from your geographical area. Ask anything - don't hold back!

Ask a Hampshire Graduate
Hampshire has graduated more than 10,000 students since its inception in 1970, many of whom are still closely connected with the Hampshire community. Hampshire has volunteers across the nation who attend college fairs, conduct admissions interviews, and are eager to connect with students who are considering Hampshire College.
