Making the Most of a College Visit

A visit to a college campus, though not essential, is one of the best ways to figure out if a college is the right fit for you. Visits can range from a one hour tour, to a formal presentation, to an overnight stay. Most visits include an information session and a tour.

The college visit works best when it’s viewed as a tool to help you make that decision. Visit here for a list of suggestions for visiting colleges.
