[quote=Anonymous]Why visit before applying? To see if you want to go/if it is worth applying. 3 kids, 2 currently in college, 3rd is a HS junior and we are visiting schools now. - some schools they ruled out just walking around the campus (didn't like the vibe, or, was a great school they liked, but in a rotten location that they did not like or vice versa) - some schools they didn't bother applying to after the admissions schpiel and tour and eating in the cafeteria (this was allowed in 2019 and earlier, and this past Fall, we are finding some schools are not allowing this again now) - some schools became EA schools, and one became an ED school, after a visit. It is such a crap shoot these days, that what once were matches are now reaches. If you can know where you want to go and apply ED, you are at a huge advantage. Not all small urban areas or large rural campuses feel the same, and you need to try the shoe on before you buy it so to speak. [/quote]
