Showing interest is never a bad idea, but I remember reading in this forum a few years ago that Skidmore is particularly interested in strong demonstrated interest and fit (moreso than bare stats alone). I can’t confirm that (the pandemic hit during my D’s HS junior year and so we never ventured to Skidmore) but if you do visit or if your D does any kind of online tour or interview and really prioritizes Skidmore, she should make an extra effort to make sure her application reflects her enthusiasm.
