[quote=Anonymous]I agree that many schools are not open on Memorial Day, so double check. We started by sampling local schools - even one our son wasn't really interested in - to get a feeling for what kind of campus environment was appealing. Dickinson and Swarthmore ruled out SLAC in either a rural or more suburban setting. GW ruled out schools with a very urban environment, but Georgetown/JHU ruled in ubran schools with a defined campus. UVA ruled in some larger schools than he initially thought might be appealing. Once you get some broad parameters like that, then you can begin to effectively target certain kinds of schools. No reason to schlep all the way to Davidson to learn he doesn't like liberal arts schools, for example. [/quote]
