[quote=Anonymous]OP, it's so different now. I showed up move-in day Freshmen year without ever having stepped foot on the campus prior. It's pretty similar to old folks my age :). We did a few summer and spring break tours Junior year, but the admit events are so much better at seeing what it's like. My kid (and us) changed our minds about a few schools/programs after the more in-depth visits. We have two more admitted events to attend--and my kid will decide after participating in all of them. I'm actually glad we didn't visit some of the schools that are far away prior to finding out if he got in or not--it would have been a waste of time/$. The one he did get in on the West Coast we are visiting--but some of the ones very far remote NE---I'm glad we didn't waste the time/$ (they didn't use demonstrated interest).[/quote]
