If the question is does doing an official tour increase chances of admission - the answer is that depends. For some schools, DI matters. For some, not.

Toured Yale and Notre Dame. Only applied to ND and got in. Kid didn't like Yale for whatever reason, and we only toured it because we happened to be in town.

We toured 0, since demonstrated interest is not relevant for this group of schools. Our son applied to 1 top 25 school and was accepted to it, but without the financial package we needed so he went to our state flagship. He's doing well there.

Not sure how this will actually help anyone, but...
Toured 7 (most informally, still didn't offer yours for '22), applied to 5, admitted to 3.
Toured 4 T25 LACs (2 informally for same reason), applied to 4, accepted to 2 (the 2 we had registered for tours), WL 1.

It’s the middle of February. We won’t know acceptances for another 6 weeks. What is the point of this thread?

South to North...Emory, Duke, Gtown, Hopkins, NYU, BC, NEU

My kid visited 3 T25 schools and didn't apply to any of them. They applied to 3 different T25s that we didn't visit, and got into 1.

Why do you feel a need to create threads?

NP Stop attacking. If you don't like it, just move along.

But you are wasting everyone’s time with absurd threads

I bet my kids applied to 20% of the schools we toured.

I can't speak for others but if I read about something and want to hear people's opinions or , a thread on the topic brings results. Prople who are interested, would post, others fan scroll down, no obligations to reply.

+1. What's odd is the need to reply if the topic is irrelevant to you.

The question doesn't make sense to me. OP, are you trying to guess whether tours (via demonstrated interest) play a role in admission?

Keep in mind that current seniors don't have RD results. ED admits have to withdraw other apps, which coincidentally often occurs before hearing results, at least for ED1. So for example, while we toured maybe 9 schools (a bit excessive), only a few of which were T25s, my kid applied RD to a couple of UCs, EA and early RD to two T50s, ED to one T10 and was admitted to the ED school. Then withdrew all other apps, so we will never know the results.

Yes, toured the ED school - that's kinda the point of touring at T25s, to see if the student wants to commit via ED, in which case there would typically only be the one acceptance. ED2 timeline is a little different, of course.

We have multiple kids in travel sports and took the opportunity to tour colleges whenever we were someplace new. We toured:

Northwestern
U of Chicago
Harvard
MIT
Brown
Princeton
Yale
Johns Hopkins
Vanderbilt
Duke
U of Michigan
UVA
Cornell

Applied to 1 early and was accepted so no other applications
