[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Safeties - Critical to visit! Believe me. You want to demonstrate interest, which affects whether they give you acceptance or deferral in EA. Must do! Targets - visit those interest your DC. Sampling. Get a feel. Reaches - you want to visit your potential ED schools. High reaches usually don't care about demonstrated interest, yes you can skip them.[/quote] +1 especially important to visit and find safeties you can really like. #1 visited 7. Probably would have seen more but he was a junior when COVID hit. We were glad we'd done early visits to get a sense of size/setting preferences. #2 tagged along on several of #1's visits. Saw 12 specifically for her search. Spread out between spring semester sophomore year and fall semester senior year. She was focused on LACs and I think in those small schools it's really important to get a sense of the vibe/fit. [/quote]
