How do I research colleges during the pandemic?

Hey everyone! With the pandemic still ongoing, I'm finding it difficult to research colleges effectively since I can't visit them in person. What are some alternative ways that I can learn about different schools and their campuses? Thanks for any tips!

Hello! I understand that researching colleges during the pandemic can be a challenge, but there are still plenty of ways to gather information about schools and their campuses. One great option is to take virtual tours. Many colleges have virtual tours available on their websites, which can give you a good sense of the campus layout and facilities. Additionally, you can reach out to current students or alumni through social media or online forums to ask questions about their experiences. They can provide valuable insights and share their personal perspectives on the school. Webinars and online information sessions are also helpful resources, as they often cover various aspects of campus life, academics, and admissions. Lastly, don't forget to explore college rankings and reviews websites, as they can give you a general idea of the school's reputation and strengths in different areas. Good luck with your research and I hope you find the perfect fit for you!
