A complete college application consists of three steps: visiting a school, applying and saying goodbye. Visiting a school is the most novel and interesting, while applying is busy and stressful. The form in which you say goodbye to a university depends on each person. In order to get meaningful feedback from the school visit and fully grasp the opportunity of in-depth exchanges with the dream university, we can refer to the suggestions made by Karen Dentler, who has invested in the field of higher education for more than 20 years and is an expert in management education at CMU: 

 

➤Preparation before departure

2. thank you letter
   If your child meets with a staff member alone during a school visit, ask the child to write down the person's full name, title, and email address, and encourage the child to write a simple thank-you note when they get home..

I hope these points can enrich your university visit itinerary, and I hope all parents and children can enjoy this journey to the future together.

 

1. Let children share first impressions
   After the visit, all parents must be full of opinions ready to express. But I conclude from my own experience that the most important thing is alwaysLet the child speak first!This is not only a journey for children, but also about the long journey they are about to embark on. While the impression is still fresh, listen to what they have to say and offer support.

   Taking photos at any time during the trip will help you strengthen your impression of the school, after all they will start to blur and overlap after a few trips. Trust me, you don’t want to be left hanging your head a few weeks later and thinking, “Oh no! Which college is that with all the beautiful cafeterias and delicious cookies?”

5. Let your children take the lead
   Children are the protagonist today! Encourage him/her who is about to spread his wings to register, and take the initiative to ask questions at the admissions briefing.
   Stay at the front and watch carefully. The tour guide and itinerary itself are also the starting point for observing the school, allowing children to find opportunities to interact with the tour guide and ask questions. Some schools separate parents and children during the itinerary, while others allow visitors to choose their own after the tour guides introduce themselves - think about what messages these different practices reveal? Pay attention to what is introduced in the itinerary and what is ignored? The presentation of the dormitories and surrounding areas is extremely critical as it is nothing less than one of the focal points of the student experience. Pay more attention to the state of the students you pass by on the street. Are they comfortable and relaxed, or do they look worried? Did they share any anecdotes about campus life? These signs can help us interpret a university's happiness index.

Relevant information can usually be found on the official website, but it is also a good idea to call or send an email during business hours. After receiving the confirmation notice, please confirm the specifications and print them out. Don't forget to prepare relevant documents, parking passes, visitor passes, etc.

5. Rehearsal Admissions Interview
   If your child is sure to participate in the admissions interview, or plans to have an individual interview with any professor or coach, be sure to be fully prepared and bring relevant information such as transcripts, resumes, and portfolios with you on the day. In addition, some small schools will unexpectedly include meetings with professors or academic administrators during the school visit.

 

➤The day of the visit

1. Arrive at campus on time!
   Note that parking spaces may not be enough for school admissions visits, and finding them temporarily can be a nightmare. So please contact the Admissions Office before or after arrival to confirm available parking, or to inquire about the nearest car park.

3. Eat and drink enough
   Whether you are getting off the bus to look for food or preparing your own meals, remember to eat before the trip begins. Make sure you can stay focused and comfortable during the entire trip to achieve maximum results!

4. Listen carefully to the admissions briefing
   Pay attention to which aspects the school emphasizes and which aspects it ignores? Were any current students involved in the publication process? Is the atmosphere of the briefing more relaxed or professional? How is the number of people on site? This information will help us understand the attitude and demands of the school's admissions department, and also help us make comparisons.

5. Let your children take the lead
   Children are the protagonist today! Encourage him/her who is about to spread his wings to register, and take the initiative to ask questions at the admissions briefing.
   Stay at the front and watch carefully. The tour guide and itinerary itself are also the starting point for observing the school, allowing children to find opportunities to interact with the tour guide and ask questions. Some schools separate parents and children during the itinerary, while others allow visitors to choose their own after the tour guides introduce themselves - think about what messages these different practices reveal? Pay attention to what is introduced in the itinerary and what is ignored? The presentation of the dormitories and surrounding areas is extremely critical as it is nothing less than one of the focal points of the student experience. Pay more attention to the state of the students you pass by on the street. Are they comfortable and relaxed, or do they look worried? Did they share any anecdotes about campus life? These signs can help us interpret a university's happiness index.

7. Tourist guide
   Are your tour guides adequately prepared? Did you greet the students naturally during the trip? Does he look familiar to the students? You can get a glimpse of the extent of student care and kindness.

8. Photograph
   Taking photos at any time during the trip will help you strengthen your impression of the school, after all they will start to blur and overlap after a few trips. Trust me, you don’t want to be left hanging your head a few weeks later and thinking, “Oh no! Which college is that with all the beautiful cafeterias and delicious cookies?”

9. Have a taste!
   Be sure of itSchool canteenDining opportunity! In addition to the style, cost and healthiness provided by the menu, take the opportunity to observe the posture and expressions of the students around you. It’s important to have an impact on your eating experience, so look for opportunities to discuss this in depth with your children and incorporate it into future decisions.

 

➤After visiting the school

1. Let children share first impressions
   After the visit, all parents must be full of opinions ready to express. But I conclude from my own experience that the most important thing is alwaysLet the child speak first!This is not only a journey for children, but also about the long journey they are about to embark on. While the impression is still fresh, listen to what they have to say and offer support.

2. thank you letter
   If your child meets with a staff member alone during a school visit, ask the child to write down the person's full name, title, and email address, and encourage the child to write a simple thank-you note when they get home..

I hope these points can enrich your university visit itinerary, and I hope all parents and children can enjoy this journey to the future together.

 

1. Be sure to visit the university during your studies
   Visiting a university without active students is no different than visiting its monuments (which may be prettier!), and visiting during your studies is the perfect time to soak up the campus atmosphere. If you plan to make a second visit to the school for interviews or consultations, it would be appropriate to schedule it during the summer.

2. Plan your trip in advance
   I have carefully looked at the calendar of my child’s school from September to May. The climate environment and student life that can be observed when visiting the school during this period are more representative. Choose a suitable holiday, or plan your itinerary on a date that overlaps with your own leave. Pay attention to the school's leave regulations and contact them in advance!

3. Make a school visit plan
   Arrange a day or holiday itinerary according to the distance between schools, and don’t forget to arrange the nearest schools on the same trip. Shop around and visit as many universities as possible. Look for opportunities to visit your dream colleges and alternative schools for early application. It will definitely help with your decision-making!
