Do a few days really make a difference?

<p>This probably doesn’t go here, but I know I can rely on this board for quick responses, so…</p>

<p>Before I can make my college decision, there are a couple more campuses I have to see (last minute, I know). I have choir tour next week, so my soonest availability to do some visits is the week of the 14th. However, I really want to avoid missing that much school. So I’m wondering, even though we’re encouraged to get everything done as soon as possible, would it make a huge difference if I put the trip off until the weekend (maybe starting the trip on the 17th)?</p>

<p>I’d be ready to decide the following Monday (the 21st). </p>

<p>Basically what I’m asking is: is it worth it to miss school to get my decision in a few days earlier?</p>

<p>You have until May 1. Unless there’s some housing issue involved in sending in your response earlier, there’s no penalty in waiting until May 1.</p>
