College visits are probably the most fun part of the college application process. When it comes to researching potential schools, there’s no better substitute for figuring out if a campus will feel like home.

​

If possible, visit every college that you are strongly considering. No website, guidebook, or testimonial will give you a better feel for a school than you'll get by seeing it for yourself. Many students change their minds after a campus visit. This is obviously preferable to changing your mind after you enroll! 

​

Throughout the school year, we offer many opportunities for students to tour schools and attend college field trips.  Listen closely to announcements or talk with your counselor if you are interested in visiting a college.
