McCourt School of Public Policy Events

In addition to the information on our website, prospective students can participate in several different kinds of information sessions to learn more about the admissions process and graduate programs offered at McCourt. 

COVID-19 Update

As of March 2020, The McCourt School cancelled all in-person Admissions events.

The McCourt community is one of our strengths and our in-person events allow you to experience our engaged and collaborative environment first-hand. However, we recognize the importance of social distancing, and your health and security is our first priority.

Please continue to visit our website and reach out to our team and student and alumni ambassadors. We also encourage you to follow us on social media and see what our community has been up to this year.
