The MIT Chapel is open via card access to all members of the MIT community for quiet observances outside of regularly scheduled events. Groups approved by the Office of Religious, Spiritual, and Ethical Life (ORSEL) may use the Chapel for services. In addition, sororities and fraternities may use the Chapel to hold initiation ceremonies. Experienced organists from the MIT community may use the Chapel organ with approval from CAC.
The space is unlocked and open to members of the general public for visiting hours, Monday – Friday,
10:00 AM to 11:00 AM and 1:30 PM to 2:30 PM. Please note that sometimes religious services are scheduled during these hours. If you arrive during a service the Chapel is not available for viewing and we ask that you return on another day.
