We are flying from CA to Boston to visit 4 colleges during spring break in April-- and a vacation or family of 5. This is our last set of visits and was expected to fill out my junior daughters “apply to” list and possibly pick an ED school. Brown just cancelled all campus visits through April. It wouldn’t surprise me if other schools follow suit. As long as we are healthy we are planning to travel. If the tours get cancelled is the trip worthwhile-- to see the area, walk around campus on our own, etc.? This is the last chance to visit for our schedules and admitted student days across the U.S. are not really an option. Schools planned: Brown, Boston U., Tufts, Smith. Obviously all our flights and lodging is already paid for and ability to refunds is questionable. If she doesn’t go she has only ~4 colleges on her list and could choose to apply blindly to these, but then what if she’s accepted? What would she base her decision on?
