The campus visit is a critical component of any college planning process. Second semester of junior year is an ideal time for college-bound students (and their families) to spend time on the college and university campuses that match their interests. Many institutions, including the University of Kansas in Lawrence, KS, will host special day-long visit programs designed to meet the needs of students in this phase of their search.
A more focused or academically tailored follow-up visit during senior year is advisable for those, who after visiting a first time, determine they will apply for admission in the fall.
