My oldest DD is a sophomore this year and has no idea where she wants to go to school.
I was just wondering when students usually begin doing college visits? I didn't know if I should look into doing a couple this summer or if it's too early. If we did any this summer, it'd probably just be a couple that are pretty close to home so she could at least get the feel of a college campus.e
She also got a post card in the mail today about a college fair that is coming to our community college that says dozens of colleges will be represented. I think we are going to try to go to that too. I figured since it was addressed to her that her age group is encouraged to go.
Thanks for any advice / opinions!
There is nothing wrong with starting right now. Don't fly clear across the country just to look at a school or anything. But say if you have a vacation planned and there is a school nearby, take a little time and take a look. You're not out much money in that case. You were already going anyway. The school fairs are hit and miss around here. Sometimes we get a lot of colleges from all over the region. Other times it ends up being Devry, Phoenix, Kaplan, the truck driving or mechanics school and a few local colleges. If you have local schools, go take a look.
