Making visits can help you narrow your focus to certain schools. It can also give you experiences that you can use as part of the admissions process.

Going to see college campuses before you apply can help you refine your list of target schools even further. As a result, you can spend more time on applications to colleges in which you have a genuine and passionate interest. Plus, you can reduce the time and cost involved by not filling out admissions applications for schools that you will have decided against.

Once you have visited the campuses of the schools you are targeting, you may find yourself better prepared to take on college interviews and applications. Personal experiences with college students and professors can help you can describe why you want to attend a particular university, why you are a fit for the school, and what you can contribute academically and socially if admitted.
