[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had time this summer, and my kid really had no idea what he wanted, so we did “drive through” [b]visits of colleges that represented a range of options — small town/big state university, big city/smaller private, etc[/b]. We did a few in-person tours of the colleges where DC is a legacy (all of which DC is seriously interested in). We’re going to make one more visit to a school that DC may choose for an ED II application. That said, I think the approach of applying, seeing where you get in and then visiting is a good one. One advantage of visiting is that it’s a way of showing “demonstrated interest,” but there are lots of opportunities to do that on line, as well. [/quote] This is what we're doing now with our Jr. Trying to get a sense of preferred environment before starting to create a list.[/quote]
