Visit

We are delighted that you are interested in learning more about New England Law | Boston. We feel the best way to learn about a law school is to visit it! If you will be in the Boston area, we encourage you to stop by to see what life is like here at New England Law.

Guided Tours

Guided tours, offered on an individual basis, are led by either a student ambassador or an admissions representative.  These tours are generally available 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.  We request at least one week advance notice to schedule a date and time for a tour.  Tours are also available on some weekends or evenings when student ambassadors are available.  These tours require at least two weeks advance notice because of the limited availability of student ambassadors at those times. Without an appointment, we cannot guarantee a tour guide will be able to assist you. Please note that self-guided tours are always available.

You may sign up here for a guided tour or contact the Admissions Office at (617) 422-7210 or admit@nesl.edu

Self-Guided Tours

If you happen to drop by New England Law without an appointment, you are more than welcome to take a self-guided tour. Simply sign in with the security guard in the lobby of our 154 Stuart St. building and pick up our self-guided tour manual at the circulation desk in the law library.

Self-guided tours of the law school are allowed:

Monday-Friday, 9 a.m.-9 p.m.
