[quote=Anonymous]Visited 17–which is too many. Will target 10 for our next kid (you can visit far reaches after acceptance). Would suggest starting with a local college tour to see what your student might care about even if they have no intentions of applying (we toured Georgetown eventhough it was too close to home) and it did get her thinking about likes and dislikes which helped a bit for future planning and expectations of what happens on a tour. It’s easier if your child knows if they want big/small, urban/rural, etc. If not, maybe plan a trip to PA or Boston where you can see a bunch of schools in a short period of time to help determine the type of schools your child prefers. For us, guided tours were better than self-guided YMMV. Try to fall in love or at least like with a couple “safeties”. Good luck! [/quote]
