Prospective students and their families are welcome to join us during our visitation events to learn more about Heinz College by meeting faculty, administrators, and current students and learning about the admissions process and financial aid options at the college.
Pittsburgh Campus
Pittsburgh was named one of America's Most Livable Cities by Rand McNally and has been featured in the travel section of the New York Times for its distinct neighborhoods, cultural offerings and green, easily-accessible suburbs. It boasts a low crime rate, good schools, a moderate cost of living and extensive public transportation (which is free for Carnegie Mellon students). The campus setting offers an urban environment and easy access to miles of parks and trails.
