Revisit days really changed our direction. It is a time to stop impressing and really focus on imagining yourself within a given community, spend time with the current students and get a sense of your potential peers. A chance to ask questions and really see how students interact with one another. Trying the food, seeing classes, attending club fairs, spending time in dorms and at activities are very different experiences than a 45 min. tour while you are thinking up questions for your interview. Note: some schools do a better job at revisit days than others (which sadly works against them). While our daughter believes she would have been happy at any number of the schools she considered, she loves her school.
