LAC Quick Guide: Notes on Campus Tours

8/11/2021

Here are some quick notes (and items to focus on) for self-guided college tours -- note that these can apply for regularly set tours as well!

It is a big plus to check in, if possible.  Letting the Admissions Team know that you're there to visit and see the campus as 'self-guided' - is a plus in their book.  *After the tour, you can determine the names of the admissions rep for your area -- work to connect with them after the tour(s) with a 'thank you' note and to ask any questions that you may have (even if it's simply, "What are next steps?".

If self-guided, be sure to pick up a map of the campus and focus on the places that mean the most to you and your future -- where will you spend your time? What shouldn't you miss?  Those places will primarily be:


Library
A dining hall
A freshman dorm (if you can gain access)
Buildings of Anticipated Major/Minor(s)
Athletic/fitness facilities

And then see places that are more fun/entertaining in nature -- common areas, student center, etc.

We stress that while you're walking - be it self-guided or formal - to (1) earnestly see if you can picture yourself in that spot for four years, and (2) come up with questions that you may have to then follow up on.
