[quote=Anonymous]My DS has visited 4 colleges and likes 2 of them (he is a junior). Because he likes these schools he is not motivated to visit other schools. But these schools are not guarantees by any means for him. When I mention visiting other schools, he gives the Goldilocks response: too far away, too hot, too cold, too remote, too urban, too big, too small, whatever. Should I just require him to make a list of X number of schools and agree to take him to the schools on his list? What number should X be? Is it ever wise to insist a student visit a school he claims does not interest him? One of my friends had a rule that the parents got to put a certain number of schools on their daughter's list, and one of the parents' choices ended up being her favorite. Bad idea?[/quote]
