Final College Visits this summer - Pennsylvania or California?

S25 is looking at Elon too :slight_smile: D23 loved it as well and only didn’t attend because she wanted more of a city.

So I think I’m going to have him attend a virtual session with Lehigh. If he loves the virtual session then we will visit. Villanova doesn’t track interest so we’ll visit if we visit Lehigh and maybe check out some of these other Pennsylvania suggestions too.

I think we can do a quick trip to CMC as well and skip the other California schools. He’s not big on Santa Clara and wants to apply to USD but will “probably” be accepted without a visit.

If anyone is interested this is S25’s current (too long) list that he’ll cull after our spring trip.

Likely
Gonzaga
Miami Ohio
Elon

50/50 ish
USD
Furman
SMU Cox
Trinity U (sister attends)

Lower Reach
Denison
Lehigh
W&L (he probably won’t attend but is a 5th generation legacy one on side and both my husband and I attended so I’m calling it a low reach if he EDs which he likely won’t)

Reach (all ED possibilities, haven’t visited yet)
William and Mary
U of Richmond
Wake Forest

Huge Reach
Notre Dame (will do REA if nothing else moves up higher)
Claremont McKenna
