<p>We’re a year behind 7Dad on this, but I had already been thinking that we would tour a sampling of schools just to settle on a “type” and that DD would not necessarily tour every school she ends up applying to. Since kids apply to so many colleges that would take a huge amount of time, and when it comes to college I’m not convinced that the sense of feel you get from a visit is as important as it is with boarding school. So, I’m thinking that we will visit a handful of schools and then DD can decide on an overall direction, and we’ll find a range of schools that meet those criteria.</p>
