Find answers to common questions about Curated Campus Tours, including how our college campus tour planning works and what to expect on your visit Frequently Asked Questions What makes Curated Campus Tours different from a standard campus visit? 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. How does the process work? 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. What ages and grades do you work with? 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. Do you work as a college advisor? We do not. We work alongside college counselors and our work starts where the scope of theirs ends. Your college advisor helps you build your list and we help you explore it in person, with depth and intention. If you do not currently have a college counselor, we have several trusted advisors we work with and would be happy to recommend. Do I need to come to you with a college list? Yes. We don't create a college list for you. We work with the schools you've already decided you want to explore. That said, we're happy to suggest additional campus experiences nearby if that's of interest. What's included in the cost? Pricing depends on the package and number of campuses. A full package will include Includes four campuses with all itinerary components:Routing, Hotels, Internal Transportation, Expert Destination AdviceDelivered in PDF format and customized app for your phoneEvery proposal includes a full breakdown of what's covered. Contact us for a custom quote based on your family's plans. Can I use you as a consultant? Yes. We offer an hourly consulting rate for families who want to talk through specific ideas or campus decisions without committing to a full tour package. When should we reach out? We recommend booking at least 3-4 weeks in advance, especially during peak tour season in spring and fall, to ensure availability and time to build a thoughtful itinerary. How do I get started? Visit our Contact page to book your initial consultation. We'll learn about your family's goals and build a plan tailored to your student. Book a Consultation
