How many college visits

We did 4 schools in 2 days with a sophomore and 8th grader. They were not overwhelmed, but they were pretty interested in the tours. Two a day would be too much if the student is not all in on doing so. We toured JMU in the morning (probably would have done W&L instead, but they did not have tours that day) and UVA in the afternoon. Drove to Richmond, checked into a hotel, then did a fun cooking lesson that evening at Sur La Table in Richmond. Toured Richmond the next morning, then W&M in the afternoon. We then had a fun day at Busch Gardens the next day before returning home. Each school was about an hour drive from the last. On another trip, we toured UNC and Duke on the same day and felt that we had plenty of time. My older daughter is a senior now; I’m so glad we starting touring early pre-Covid.
