Make sure that the research opportunities are truly available to undergrads and aren’t scooped up by grad students. When my son was in HS, visiting colleges, he would often venture off on his own, stopping in labs and talking with the grad students there. Many times they were happy to show him around and talk about their projects. He had a better feel for WHO did what. He’s doing Neuroscience at Brown and there is plenty of research available for undergrads, but then again, Brown doesn’t have a large grad program.
