Shadow Days and Campus Tours

One of the best ways to get to know Lyndon Institute is to experience it first-hand; a shadow day or campus tour can be arranged. This gives prospective students a glimpse of "a day in the life of LI." Guests enjoy attending classes, exploring our campus, and spending breaks and lunch with their host.

To schedule a shadow you will first need to fill out our inquiry form below. Once your inquiry is processed, (normally within 1 business day) you will receive an invite from our portal, “Blackbaud.” A checklist will be provided to help you navigate the admission process for your student, including a self scheduling feature for shadow days.
