Fly-in visit · Olin College of Engineering

MIX & Mingle is Olin College of Engineering's overnight fly-in for high school seniors planning to enter college in Fall 2027. A school counselor, teacher, or administrator nominates you (Olin does not accept self-nominations), and for students who wouldn't otherwise have the financial resources to visit, Olin covers all costs for the November 8-9, 2026 visit to its Needham, Massachusetts campus. You'll attend classes, meet President Gilda Barabino and current faculty and students, and get a firsthand look at Olin's project-based engineering curriculum. Eligible students are U.S. citizens or permanent residents currently residing in the contiguous United States.
