College Tours:
Summer is a great opportunity to visit campuses that interest you. You may be wondering how you set one up. Here's how:
visit the school's website, adventure around and make sure this is a place you'd like to spend 4 or more years
If it's a yes find "future students" section, sometimes it's called something different
Then find schedule a visit, or if they have a search bar, search "schedule a visit"
Follow the directions to request a visit that works for your family
What if I can't make a visit in person? How do I know it's a good choice? Below are some things to help you decide.
Visit the school's website, and really look around at the programs, clubs,
Take a Virtual tour
Check out social media and follow school organization accounts (be careful many are not official pages)
Attend college fairs virtually or in-person locally (Central's will this Fall)
