[quote=Anonymous]Visit and apply to diverse schools. I was kind of like your daughter when I was applying to colleges. I was recruited for a sport and sent my skills tape to all kinds of schools—not as geographically diverse as what you’ve stated, but up and down the eastern seaboard to the Midwest. I sent to a service academy (who actually ended up being my strongest recruiter), large state schools, small private schools, schools known for their sports, other schools better known for academics. I didn’t get a good enough financial package from my favorite school (College of the Holy Cross—I never even knew it existed until my parents suggested it) and went to a safety school instead (small, many commuters, close to a big city) I probably wouldn’t have chosen on my own. I definitely felt visiting was a big help. I am a laid back person socially so I knew I could make friends anywhere, my major was one I could do anywhere, and it just took some in person visits to find my vibe. [/quote]
