[quote=Anonymous]We did the three DC schools between Christmas and New Year's. No official tours. Just city and campus infrastructure vibe check. Also toured Georgetown the neighborhood. Pitt, CMU, and Penn State could be a set for a long weekend. We looked at Pitt and CMU on the weekend following Thanksgiving (we grew up in Pittsburgh so are familiar with how to showcase the area even when the buildings are closed). Campus tours have inconvenient outages at times when parents and high schoolers might be free. It's necessary to understand each school's quirks and plan far ahead. We visited other schools in passing on vacation. Cornell on the way back from an NYC vacation. Drexel on a trip to Philly. I believe in the idea that you can take a look at "representative types" of campuses near you. Then wait to visit the ones that emerge as important when it's closer to application or decision time.[/quote]
