[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let your kid go by himself during the school year and stay with a freshman host in the dorm. There is o reason for u to go with him. I did all my college touring alone using the train and bus.[/quote] I think this is a great strategy for a senior narrowing down the list between a couple of schools, but it's not appropriate for a 15 year old sophomore, and in fact I think most colleges won't allow it at that age. I think that touring local schools, or schools in an area where you're already vacationing with your child is a great way to start conversations and get them thinking about what they might like. Once you have a sense of that, sending your child off by himself to look at a distant school makes sense.[/quote]
