Frequently Asked Questions
Standard admissions tours are scripted and generic. We design every visit around your family's specific priorities: academic interests, social fit, and campus culture. We will help facilitate meeting with professors, set up classroom experiences, connect with current students. It is important that your student be an integral part of this process so that they can leave with real understanding of where this college sits within their list.
It starts with a consultation to understand your student's interests and goals. From there, we build a custom itinerary for the entire route and once confirmed by you, we begin booking all travel along with building unique experiences for each campus.
We work with families of undergraduate and graduate students, international students, and experience-focused families who want a visit that goes beyond the surface, including students with targeted academic or extracurricular interests. Touring can happen at any time during the high school career, though we believe the most impactful times are during very specific phases of the process. These all have very different lenses to view campus life and thus very different questions to pose. Curated Campus Tours will be instrumental in helping define all of this.The Right Lens at the Right Time We tailor your tour based on where you are in the journey:Exploration: Casting a wide net to find the right "vibe."Demonstrated Interest: Making a meaningful impression on the school.Post-Acceptance: The final "gut check" before committing.
