College Trips

The purpose of the college trip is exposure. For each location we choose, we try to visit all types of colleges – small liberal arts schools, large public universities, medium private universities, schools with religious affiliations, etc. We look at the atmosphere, the types of students, the facilities, and opportunities. We also examine the cities and towns where the schools are found. 99% of the time, a student will walk away from the college trip having a much clearer understanding of the “type” of school they wish to attend. They will also either rule out, or include, a new region of the country. We can then work together to come up with a list of schools that will be a good fit for the student, based on that information.
