[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My rising 8th grader is also an athlete travels around the us for tournaments. She’s not interested in playing in college, but the tournaments provide opportunities to walk through nearby campuses. We checked out all 3 schools around Raleigh. Easy, no stress way to introduce campus differences to get a feel of big/small, urban/suburban, etc. [/quote] We did this a lot in high school during soccer tournaments - big, small, city, rural to get a general sense. Made a few targeted trips during junior spring break and summer. Was very helpful. Dcum advice to apply rolling to Pitt also very helpful to work out kinks and jumpstart process. Also did mcgill and a handful EA along with REA. Worked on common app essay during junior summer. Went through many many drafts and took time. Supplementals are a separate beast! [/quote]
