Intro + Steps for the Application / Tour Process
At the Merrill Institute, students can begin the enrollment process in whichever way feels most comfortable. You may either submit an application first and then schedule a tour and assessment, or you can request a tour before deciding whether to apply. Both options are perfectly acceptable, and our team is here to help you choose the path that works best for you.
We also offer a practice assessment online to help you prepare ahead of time.
What to Expect
- A tour + assessment typically takes 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on how quickly you complete the test.
- A tour without the assessment takes about 30 to 45 minutes.
Scheduling Tours and assessments are usually scheduled:
- Monday through Friday
- 9:00 AM - 11:30AM or 1:00 PM - 3:30 PM
We use these same time blocks for tours alone so that if you decide to complete the assessment afterward, the time is already reserved for you.
