We are ALWAYS stressing how important it is to go out and visit colleges. Being on campus is the very best way to get a feel for a school and find out if it’s a good fit for you. April vacation is next week (if you needed reminding 😉 ) and it’s the perfect time to go out and see some colleges. Classes are still in session, so you get to see the campus in full-swing. Many schools have events planned for next week to cater to the April vacation crowd. I’ve listed some Open House and Information Session events that have come across my desk – feel free to check them out! Follow the links to RSVP. I’ve added some out of area schools if you’re interested in a road trip!
