The timing of visits is during the students' lunch when they stop by your table. We are doing our best to group visits to create a mini-fair setting. We are open to universities coming by themselves or in small groups. Visits are currently limited to no more than sixteen universities on the same day. If you are traveling as a larger group, please contact Elizabeth Mohr emohr@tasisengland.org for alternative arrangements.

The days and times for visits with students are:

• Monday        11:30 a.m. - 12:15 p.m.
• Wednesday  12:00 p.m. - 12:35 p.m.
• Thursday      11:45 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.
• Friday           11:30 a.m. - 12:15 p.m.

We ask that university representatives arrive about 10 minutes early to allow time to sign in with Security and share their photo identification.

We extend an invitation for lunch in our dining hall directly after your visit. We will send details to request lunch once we confirm your visit.

To arrange a visit, please follow the instructions within "Directions for Scheduling a Visit."

We are using Maia Learning's MaiaVisit to schedule visits to campus. If you do not have account then please set up a University Admission Staff account through this link and then follow these steps, which are outlined in this video:

1. Log in to Maia Learning.
2. Click Maia Visits, then Schedule New Visit.
3. In the country menu, type the United Kingdom. TASIS England will appear on the next menu. Note that you can also see other schools in the United Kingdom also using MaiaVisits!
4. After selecting TASIS England, Check Availability to see available time slots and click an appointment that works for you.
5. Upload a PDF of your university profile or visit flyer (if desired) and click Save Time Slot to submit.

The Director of College Counseling, Elizabeth Mohr, will respond to visit requests through Maia Learning. 

Please review our school calendar, and try to avoid the following dates when there are events scheduled that will impact a number of Grade 11-12 students. We can still schedule a visit but caution that the attendance could be lower. These dates are:

• March 11-19
• April 24 - May 17 (IB and AP exams)

If you would like to join our College Counseling Coffee presentations by sharing your perspective about a current admissions topic with a group of parents, then we invite you to co-present with the TASIS College Counseling Department from 10:30 - 11:30 a.m. and then stay for a university visit with students from 12 - 12:40 p.m. on these days:

• November 8 
• February 7
• April 10

For further details about co-presenting at one of these parent coffees, please contact Elizabeth Mohr.

Arrival on-campus:

Please arrive at the TASIS Security Lodge on Ten Acre Lane, TW20 8SJ.

By Train, from London:

Most of our visitors prefer to stay in London. From London the easiest way to travel back and forth to TASIS England is Southwest Rail. Trains typically leave twice an hour and take 40-60 minutes to reach the closest station, Virginia Water, which is only a 5-10 minute taxi from campus. However, there is no taxi stand at the station, so please call ahead to book a taxi at 01932 571111 or 01784 471111. Alternative train stations are Egham and Staines, which are 10-15 minutes from campus and have the advantage of more frequent trains and a higher prevalence of taxis.

Some universities have also found success using Uber or Bolt to arrange rides to campus from local train stations and/or the Greater London area.

Here are driving directions to reach to TASIS England.

Handy travel websites:
www.nationalrail.co.uk for train schedules, fares, and to buy tickets in advance.
www.tfl.gov.uk for information on the London tube (metro) and real-time service updates.

There are several schools in this area. As a member of the London-Area College Counseling group, we have worked to share contact details and details for arranging a visit to these schools here.
