Before accepting an admissions offer from a college, a college visit can provide valuable feedback on whether that institution provides the best fit for you as a college student. Rather than banking on a college website, make sure that you visit colleges. The main advantage of doing this is that you are going to get first-hand information and also get a feel of the college which is quite important as you are going to spend plenty of your time there. It is very different to hear opinions, see the website and even read books regarding a college. Everything can seem ideal when reading about it, until you get there. What to do, when to visit, which colleges should I visit? Here are some answers regarding this important topic in college admissions.
“In my opinion, summer is an ideal time to visit colleges. It is not only convenient for students but also for their family members. Further, majority of colleges run courses during the summer months, you can visit classes and talk to enrolled students,” pointed out Hadim Nazar. However, some will refute this statement by saying that you cannot grasp the true college spirit in the summer, when most students are away. Either way, if you have no other better choice, visiting during the summer will ensure that you have more time to devote to the visit, as opposed to rushing so that you can get back home without missing school days.
