Lauder Visit Program
Ordinarily, we’d love to invite you to visit Lauder to learn about the admissions process, attend classes, meet current students, and get a firsthand look at our diverse and collaborative culture. However, due to the COVID-19 global pandemic, the 2020-2021 Campus Visit Program has been suspended at this time.
We are currently offering virtual events and opportunities to connect with students, alums and our Lauder Admissions team. Check out our virtual events and register online here.
For more information on how the University of Pennsylvania is responding to the COVID-19 outbreak, visit the Penn Coronavirus website.
Experience the Community
If you’re thinking about applying to the Lauder Institute, we encourage you to visit us on the University of Pennsylvania campus. Attend a class, meet with faculty or the admissions team face to face, and ask questions of current students in person. There is no better introduction to the Lauder community.
Attend an Information Session
On select Tuesdays and Thursdays from September through April, Lauder hosts an information session at 2pm. Join us to learn more about the program, meet with admissions staff and students, and attend a class. To sign up, please RSVP via the Wharton MBA admissions events page here.
