College/Campus Visits

BRIEF SUMMARY

Visiting a college is the best way to get a feel for the campus — from classes and dorms to the cafeteria menu.  All colleges have admission offices that can help students plan a visit.  High schools may organize group tours of nearby colleges.

KEY POINTS

  • Campus visits can range from a quick hour to an overnight stay, from a casual guided tour to a formal presentation.
  • For students to really get a feel for a college, they need to walk around the quad, sit in on a class and visit the dorms.

SHARED WISDOM

  • Q: Are there any colleges that anyone knows of that is willing to provide transportation for a campus visit? (Illinois or Indiana) Our school does not have any funds to do so and I have heard of colleges that do this? (Counselor Talk, October 2018)
    • I think Vincennes does
    • I’m sure you’ve reached out to PNW [but I’m wondering since it is a Hammond school if they’d be more willing to transport]
