Let's Go to College
College Visits
The best way to decide where you want to go to college is to visit college campuses!
Students are responsible for setting up the college visit. See a counselor for contact information of the college recruiter, or visit the college admissions website.
Seniors have two days available to visit colleges.
Students must provide the attendance clerk with a proof of the visit. Ask the college recruitment office at the college for a letter after your visit.
Many colleges have events on Saturdays.
