I agree that if you’re not having an interview, it doesn’t matter. I would say that if you are having an interview, “business casual” is the best bet–collared shirt (can be a polo), pants that aren’t jeans (khakis are fine), shoes that aren’t sneakers or sandals (deck shoes are fine).

I would note, though, that if you wear “business casual” for the tour and info session, you will feel slightly superior to the shabbily dressed people. That might be enough reason to do it.
