Whether a student is planning on attending a community college, trade school, or four-year university, an important component to figuring out if a school is a good fit is to visit the campus. Most colleges have special days for prospective students. The schools plan special activities and introduce students to campus life.
Arizona universities are listed below. Information for other schools can be found at their websites or by talking to their representatives.
If those times don't fit with your schedule, visits can be scheduled at other times, as well. Visiting during the week and experiencing a real day on the campus can be the best way for getting a true feel for what the school is like.
Students considering attending an out-of-state school should try to arrange to visit those campuses, as well. If that is not possible, or to just get a look around a school, students can participate in virtual tours online through CampusTours.com.
