Make the most out of your campus visit whether it is virtually or in-person. We can customize your visit according to your interests.
COVID-19 Update
We are welcoming a limited number of visitors on campus, Monday through Saturday. Our top priority remains the health, safety, and well-being of our campus community and visitors. Lake County is now experiencing substantial community transmission risk per the CDC. As such, we are now requiring masks for all visitors in indoor spaces regardless of vaccination status throughout the duration of your visit to campus. If you do not have a mask when you arrive, we will provide you with one.
We will continue to offer virtual experiences that can be tailored to your interests. You can find the most up-to-date information for the College at lakeforest.edu/coronavirus.
We are currently offering group visits on a limited basis. Please contact our Visit Coordinator, Jody Grube, for more information.

On-site admission is designed to take the stress out of the application process and waiting for an admission decision. To take advantage of this opportunity, you must submit a transfer application and official college and high school transcripts at least two business days before your scheduled chat. We do not charge an application fee and you can submit your transcripts with the application or have them sent to us separately.
