[quote=Anonymous]I think sophomore spring break is too early. By fall of senior year, those visits will be vague, distant memories. If you happen to be near a college, there's nothing wrong with swinging by for a look-see, even a walk around, though I wouldn't book official tours until later. Most kids that grade are not ready to experience a campus in the same way that they will when they are a bit further along. Fall of junior year is the earliest I'd do official tours, and even then I'd keep the number of tours down. Spring break of junior year is prime time, when the big picture starts to come into focus. Of course, it's tough if your kid doesn't have much time off in the fall. Check the school calendar now - president's weekend or any other long weekend can be a great time for tours, though whether colleges will have classes on holidays will also vary.[/quote]
