[quote=Anonymous]For a school that looked like a match that was further away, we attended the virtual tour first.  Then when that looked good we planned a trip over summer break and had DD come up with a list of schools that we could visit along that way - some with virtual tour first and other went to see the campus first.  The closer 1-3 hour schools were as a combination of a day trips during breaks or a school day off like Oct 11 which had lots of kids on college visits.  For schools that weren’t near the other schools in the list, it was virtual tour and visit if get into school and it’s a top contender.

The downside is not being able to see the schools with students going to classes but at this point it’s a logistical challenge trying to fit so many schools into a tight window - we couldn’t go in person until this summer. You have to plan ahead with capacity limits etc and not wait to sign up for the open house/tours once you know there are dates available.  The plan is to visit while school is in session once the acceptances are in and it’s down to 2-3 schools.  [/quote]
