[quote=Anonymous]I think it's helpful to visit a few schools to get an idea of the kid of school your kid likes (city/suburban/big/small). If your kid has an idea on that or just wants to cast a wide net, then you are for the most part fine. My kid did not visit many schools. Note that there are some lower tier-schools private schools like Case Western that value demonstrated interest (check the CDS). If you don't visit, make sure to show interest other ways (especially if high stats) or expect to get waitlisted. Unless doing ED, there is really no reason to visit any Ivies. Glad we skipped that and only planned to visit if admitted. I see so many people wasting time showing their kids these schools where odds of admission are super low almost no matter who you are.
