[quote=Anonymous]We started touring early and DS just committed to one of the first schools we visited. He didn’t even apply to the others we visited that year. He was invited to paid campus visits but didn’t make it through the admissions process at two schools. One did a formal academic pre-read that he passed and the visits went well but he didn’t meet “institutional priorities”. They didn’t let on about this until they had taken up a lot of his time and gotten him excited about attending. I actually think attending visits as a sophomore is better because it’s more driven by the student/family. Don’t take how the people you meet at the tours treat your student as gospel. Apply widely.[/quote]
