[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just wanted to comment that with all these colleges’ marketing budgets, it is baffling that so many can’t get the tour and info session consistently right. Should be such an easy thing to fix.

I have been on several tours where you could not hear the tour guide some or part of the time. Unacceptable.

I have been on tours where the group never enters a university building (this is post-Covid) except the admissions office. Unacceptable.

And on and on…

Same goes for admitted student days. Both parents can’t come because you are all booked up (top SLAC) so the donut-hole family can’t decide together on a 90k investment? Unacceptable.

Stuffing parents into a crowded room where they can barely move and can’t find where the coffee is because they can’t see it (top 20 National university)? Unacceptable.

This little things matter…

Georgetown's admitted students day was a real turnoff. The students running the event weren't particularly friendly or welcoming. It was actually a big contrast to William & Mary (where we went the next day), where folks were super sweet. My kid didn't wind up at either of these schools, but as a GU alum I was disappointed.
