<p>“anyways, absenses really aren’t going to keep you from graduation unless the absenses cause you to fail your classes. if you’re grades are fine with absenses, it’s usually no problem.”</p>
<p>This is not true at the school my children attend.</p>
<p>It is far better to visit any college during the week when class is in session, rather than on a weekend, absolutely. When one lives on one coast and wants to visit schools for consideration on the opposite coast, it makes sense to fly across the country and travel among several of them during a week off from school. My son had 4 schools he wanted to visit on the east coast and we got to see all of them during the week we visited from CA. It’s a really good use of your time, and it can actually be fun, if you let it be.</p>
