[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The school my kid is attending allowed kids to choose their guide, which I think made a big difference in my kid being able to see themself at the school. And then the guides we chose—we visited twice—were really dynamic, which also helped. My kid has an activity they love and wanted to continue in college, and would ask a question of most tour guides about it, to see whether that activity was big enough on campus that even a non-involved guide would know about it. That ended up being really helpful; in most cases, the guide wasn’t involved directly, but the ones who could talk about it because they had friends who participated or because it was big enough culturally to be known by most students made the best impression on my kid. [/quote] We've gone on a couple of tours where they gave choices of tour guides and it makes a huge difference. I don't know why more colleges don't do it.[/quote]
