[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]our first time going through college apps is on the horizon (junior, same-sex twins). we are starting to think about college visits for spring break and I'm realizing how overwhelming it is to screen and consider options and then try to visit and learn about schools.  Don't get me wrong, i did all my college application stuff myself and I expect my kids to do the heavy lifting for options, etc., but we still have to plan actual travel and DH and I have limited abilities given work schedule and other kids and family obligations. Any tips for how you managed logistics? also, for helping to avoid comparisons and help each child feel like they're getting time to explore what might work for them? constant struggle for us is that we just don't have a lot of time to devote to either kid, but maybe with college applications that's a good thing.

I think that given your time limitations, you should really focus on schools close to home.  With two kids in college you will have to be able to drop off, pick up and visit.  You will want to make that as easy as possible.

I hadn’t thought a lot about the actual get-them-to-school and pick-them-up-at-breaks logistics when we were looking at schools, but I am so glad ours ended up at the same place, especially since ours weren’t looking locally.[/quote]
