[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids have *applied* to these schools but we never toured. In my mind, the only reason to tour a school before senior year is to figure out where you want to ED. Those schools weren't in contention so we didn't visit. In reality, the kid will get into just a tiny fraction of where they apply so there's no reason for the time, expense, or frankly getting their hopes up until it becomes a real choice.[/quote] OP: I'm interested in this approach. DC is a junior. Do most families here mostly tour potential ED schools? Do you wait to tour other schools after getting acceptance? How about safeties? Do you tour those too so DC can know there is a safety they would like?[/quote]
