<p>I want to be as prepared as possible and get as much as I can out of the experience, since I probably will not be able to visit again.</p>
<p>Are there certain things/events that I should place on the top of my priority list to see/do? Certain questions I should ask my tour guide or admissions counselor? Certain things I should bring with me to have the admissions counselor look at? Specific classes I should sit-in on? Good places to eat? Anything. really.</p>
<p>What subjects are you interested in?</p>
<p>I’m planning on majoring in political science, and I’m an accomplished classical pianist (I’m submitting a CD with my application). I’m also most likely going to have the Professor of Piano listen to me, if available.</p>
<p>If you visit on a Wednesday while classes are in session, there’s a fantastic international relations seminar (POL 440) you might want to sit in on if you have the time (it runs from 1:30 - 4:20, fyi). Otherwise, Civil Liberties (POL 316) is an especially good lecture course.</p>
<p>Edit: as for eating, depends on your tastes and budget. Ajihei is a sushi restaurant close to campus that serves the best sushi I’ve ever had outside of Nobu, but it’s a bit pricey. Witherspoon Grill, also close to campus, has simply outstanding meat, but is also on the expensive side.</p>
<p>Everyone needs to stop by Hoagie Haven for true snackage. Get any of their specialty sandwiches and you’ll be fine. </p>
<p>Make a stop by the Art Museum and chapel as well. They’re beautiful.</p>
