THINK COLLEGE TOURS ARE EASY? THINK AGAIN.

Dear Discerning Family,

The standard college tour is full of friction points most people don’t realize until it’s too late. Don’t let this frustrating scenario happen to you:

You visit a website and select your dates.

You make the hotel reservation, take the journey and prepare a few questions. The rest will come to you as you’re exploring the campus, right?

Then, chaos ensues.

You circle the parking lot in search of an empty space and find one almost a mile from campus. You rush to arrive on time, then you’re shuffled away with a college tour guide and dozens of other prospective students and parents like yourselves. You’re herded from here to there on foot faster than you can stop and smell the cafeteria.

Parents fight for the opportunity to ask questions over each other. Prospective students are too busy checking out their phone screens, and then, it’s over.

Did you get to ask that question that was so important? You can’t remember. You’re exhausted and relieved to see your hotel room.

On the next tour, the process repeats itself.

YOU SAY TO YOURSELF, THERE MUST BE A BETTER WAY.

THERE IS.

THIS GUIDE IS YOUR KEY TO GETTING THE REAL ANSWERS ON EVERY TOUR. USE IT, AND YOU’LL BE THE SAVVIEST FAMILY THERE.

There are incredible ways you can maximize your tour experience at every college campus. High Point University knows. We not only provide a much better tour experience than the one described on the previous page, but we’ve also been thanked by many families for offering a personalized tour option that they didn’t find on other campuses.

You’re about to make one of the biggest investments of your family’s life. Right now, the best thing you can do is know which questions to ask during the tour – questions no one could possibly know to ask until they’ve already toured dozens of campuses.

This guide breaks down the questions for both students and parents, so take it with you! By asking these questions, you’ll get the answers your family needs while also being the most prepared and knowledgeable people on the tour.

We wish we could be there to watch you shine!
