    Thank you for your interest in visiting. The single best way to decide whether The Heller School for Social Policy and Management is the right place for you is to visit us. While you are here, you can spend time with faculty, students and staff and get to know our program and community. 

    Directions to the Heller School and Parking

    When you arrive at the main entrance to the Heller School, you will see the Welcome/Admissions area on your right. Directly ahead will be the Zinner Forum. Please make your way to admissions and a member of our team will greet you and show you to your first appointment.

    The Heller School is located at the highest point of campus along the Loop Road, across from the Mandel Center for the Humanities. Brandeis also publishes an electronic campus map. If you require an accessible option, please contact Heller Admissions directly to assist you. 

    Parking

    The Security Gatehouse at the Brandeis University main entrance can provide you with a visitor's parking pass and directions. The guest parking pass permits you to park anywhere the blue permit parking is allowed (Schneider Lot, Library Lot, Kutz Lot, Castle Lot, North Lot) except for the Tower Lot.
