These usually need to be arranged in advance, so be sure to ask about them when you register for your visit. Some schools will arrange for you to meet individually with a member of the faculty in a discipline that is of interest to you. This is a great chance to visit directly with a professor about the academic environment and to get first hand information about the curriculum. Many schools schedule one or two information sessions each day. These sessions are usually led by an Admission Counselor and include a formal presentation of the College's programs.
Most colleges allow students to spend a night on campus as part of the campus visit.
This is a great way to experience the campus culture and uncover the hidden truths associated with a particular school. Typically, overnight guests are housed in the room of a student host. There is no better way to engage current students and find out what the school is really like than through an overnight visit. Observe students and their professor as they interact in the classroom.
