As a transfer student, you have a much better idea of what college is like and a couple years of maturity on the kids on tours. High school kids don’t even know what they don’t know. And tours are a marketing tool. One thing parents have is a lot more experience at spotting and seeing through marketing ploys – gotta ask questions to do that, though. Finally, as many others have said, it is the parents paying the bill most of the time. I bet when you are a parent, you will also want to ask a lot of questions before parting with up to a quarter of a million dollars.
