The Wilson Admission Center, at 220 South Pleasant Street in Amherst MA, is open Monday-Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Between mid-September and mid-November, it is also open on Saturdays from 9:30 a.m. to noon. We invite you to take a campus tour with a student guide, attend an information session, sit in on classes, and eat in our dining hall. Learn more at Amherst.edu/admission.
Parking: There are several parking spaces for visitors directly in front of the Admission building, but you may also park behind the Admission building; anywhere along the semicircular driveway between Orr Hockey Rink and South Pleasant Street/Route 116; in the Orr Rink Parking Lot; or on Hitchcock Road, running perpendicular to South Pleasant Street/Route 116 directly across from the south entrance of the driveway. On particularly busy days, should all those areas be full, additional parking may be found in the Alumni Lot.
