[quote=Anonymous]14:49 here I should add we weren’t swayed one way or another by the tour guides. I don’t understand how anyone can make a $100-$200k decision in 1 tour by 1 kid. Take it all with a grain of salt. Each visit we reached out ahead of time to have coffee with a CURRENT student from their school or larger social network.. We got 30-45 minutes like that at most but not all the schools. It was super helpful to then have the kids exchange cell phones and text follow up questions. You need multiple points of data, experiences and opinions to determine if the school might be the right FIT for your specific KID. Also your kid will mature and be more focused later senior year vs 11th grade. Then once accepted go again for accepted students day. sorry not sorry for the all caps! Pace yourselves and good luck !![/quote]
