Some general questions about college visits

After doing 15+ visits we settled to this process:

  1. Get to campus day before or 3 hours before tour. Drive around entire campus. Go up and down and observe.
  2. Find parking and walk campus yourself. Observe.
  3. Go on general tour.
  4. If you like it, apply and wait for acceptance.
  5. If accepted, return for second tour and meet professors in major.
  6. Have child get on Facebook or Boards to talk to other accepted kids.
  7. If needed, attend student for the day
  8. Attend admitted students day
  9. Decide.
