College Visit Tips:

• Don't go alone - take a friend and parent/guardian.  

• Choose the day of week and time of day carefully; your goal is to see what campus is like.

• Have a list of questions ready for both the face-to-face meet with Admissions as well as your tour guide (this is often a student - their insight is valuable!).

• Get information on tuition/room & board, financial aid/scholarships, food program, housing options, important due dates, campus life, campus organizations.
