[quote=Anonymous]I’d take her to a variety of schools (large, small, rural, suburban, city). She needs to look at safety schools as well as reaches. As she figures out what she wants, the list will narrow. I’d include a visit to Amherst, Smith, Mt Holyoke, UMass & Hampshire as they are all close to each other. Schedule a few tours and drive through the others. Take notes as her interests may change over time. Your ultimate list should include a rolling EA school and consideration of ED options. You want many schools she’d want to attend. Look at finances & decide if you need merit. This book was helpful for me, esp advice on when it was & was not appropriate for me to weigh in: How to Prepare a Standout College Application: Expert Advice that Takes You from LMO* (*Like Many Others) to Admit.
