If you are planning on applying to UC’s, a tour is ALWAYS worth it. Any school you apply to that you consider attending you should visit.

Go on a normal school day and take a guided tour as well as take an hour or two to walk around by yourself (with a friend, parent, whatever). It’s like choosing a car or apartment without looking at it first…not smart (unless the school is across the country and you don’t have to money to visit)

I wasn’t really sure which college I would pick a few weeks before the deadline and I’d gone on couple college tours for the places I got into, but as soon as I went to UCSD and took a tour, I knew that was my school. I saw myself being happy there and while the other schools I went to were nice, after visiting UCSD, I was confident that I would be happy there (and I am…so far so good!)

So, bottom line…if you can, GO on a tour (not on a weekend or holiday, though)
