Campus
Visits & Interviews
Scheduling Other On-Campus Activities
See if there are information sessions scheduled for
that day and plan to attend.
If you’re interested, see if you can sit in on a class in your
major.
If you have a great interest (or great need) for financial aid, you may
want to schedule an interview with a financial aid officer. If
this is the case, you should meet with a financial aid officer and discuss
the college’s financial aid policies and opportunities. Let
the financial aid officer know you’re interested in campus-based
scholarships and work-study jobs in which the college has full decision
capability for incoming freshmen students. Keep in contact with
the financial aid officer over the next year and make sure the officer
knows about any special circumstance that affects your family’s
financial situation (loss of a job or medical bills from a serious family
illness).
If you’re interested in spending the night in a campus dorm with
a current student, ask about the possibility of doing so. However,
we recommend you wait until you’re accepted to a college before
spending overnight in the student dorm.
Write down your itinerary for each college you will visit. See the example
itinerary Campus
Visit Itinerary for a formal campus visit.
Make travel arrangements. This includes making
airline reservations if needed, making hotel and rental car reservations,
getting driving directions to each college and university you’re
going to visit, and working out your schedule if you’re visiting
more than one college during your trip. |
