What should I look for during a college visit?

Hey there! It's great that you're planning college visits, as they can be really helpful in finding the right fit for you. Here are some things you might want to consider during your visits:

1. Attend an information session and campus tour to get an overview of what the college offers.

2. Check out the academic buildings and facilities related to your major to see if they meet your needs.

3. Sit in on a class or two to get a feel for the teaching style and classroom environment.

4. Speak with current students and ask about their experiences, both academically and socially.

5. Visit the dorms, dining halls, and other on-campus amenities to see if you'd be comfortable living there.

6. Explore the surrounding area to see if you like the local community, activities, and resources available.

I hope this helps! Enjoy your visits and best of luck in your college search!
