Group Tour Guidelines
- Submission of the registration form does not guarantee your group a tour on the requested date(s). The tour date and time will not be reserved until a confirmation email has been sent by the Special Events team.
- Three (3) weeks' notice is required for all group visits.
- Groups are encouraged to provide at least three (3) preferred dates for the tour to ensure accommodation. Requested tours are scheduled in the order received and based on the availability of staff and classrooms.
- Group tour size can be no larger than 60 students; once the final headcount has been confirmed, the number cannot increase. If a group is larger than 60 students, the group may be split between multiple days.
- All group tours (high school level and below) are required to provide at least one (1) chaperone for every ten (10) students in attendance.
- Elementary and middle school groups are limited to a certain number of available visit slots per academic year. Group organizers are encouraged to complete requests for campus visits early, as visit reservation dates are processed in the order received.
- Requesting institution(s) or chaperone(s) assume all liability for their students while on the University of Houston-Clear Lake grounds. UHCL will not be held liable for any lost or stolen goods, accidents or injuries. In the event that a tour group or member is disruptive or rude, the tour guides and any other member of the Admissions Office staff reserves the right to end the tour or visit at any time.
- Group tours are not available during the first week of each fall and spring semester or finals week of each fall and spring semester. Please check the Academic Calendar on the UHCL website for each term’s beginning and finals week dates.
- Tour group organizers must give at least two (2) business days' notice when canceling or rescheduling a scheduled tour. UHCL reserves the right to cancel or reschedule a tour due to inclement weather in advance and up to the morning of the scheduled tour time.
- Groups traveling to campus should plan to arrive on campus 10-15 mins prior to their scheduled tour time. Current students guide campus tours and are available only during the arranged tour time. Late arrival may result in a modified campus tour, or the cancellation of the campus tour and/or other previously scheduled activities.
- Groups wishing to purchase lunch from Chartwell, UHCL’s dining facility, should contact Chartwell directly at (281) 283-2653 or FoodService@uhcl.edu to make arrangements for the lunch at least one week prior to the visit date. The Office of Admissions does not assume any liability in the arrangements for or purchase of food on campus.
