    Questions about Campus Tours?
    Reach out to us!

    Residence Availability during Exam Season

    Please be aware that during the month of April, residence rooms, dining halls, and the athletic center will be inaccessible as our students head into their final exam season. Our residences have moved into 24 hour quiet periods, and campus tours are not permitted to enter during this time to ensure a quiet and productive study environment for our students. 

    Our Welcome Center features a mock showroom that will be featured during your tour, and we are happy to answer any residence-specific questions during your post tour talk. If seeing residence is a priority, we would recommend booking your tour during the summer period. Thank you for your understanding!

    Winter Weather Advisory

    Please be aware that during the winter months, Dalhousie campuses may close due to adverse weather conditions. In the event of a closure, we will make every effort to re-accommodate our guests on tour and will reach out to you via phone and email with updates. 

    For guests traveling for campus tours, we recommend planning to return home the day after your tour, if possible. This way, we can typically arrange for a tour on the day following any closures. A note that Dalhousie is unable to cover any travel costs that are related to university closures impacting campus tours. Thank you for your understanding!
