[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parent of a middle schooler here. I won't have the money to go on college tours so do colleges put a negative next to your child's name if they don't visit the campus before applying. It seems to make more sense to save my limited funds to visit the schools he does get accepted to.[/quote] You can use the Common Data Set to figure out which schools care about expressions of interest and then find some way other than visiting for your kid to express it (e.g. Ask to be put on a mailing list, attend a local presentation/school fair where the college participates and stop by to talk). Not all schools care about interest and those that do recognize that not everyone has the time/$$/job flexibility to visit campus before applying.[/quote]
