With college campuses closed because of the COVID-19 outbreak, students will not be able to attend in-person admitted days. If you are deciding which college to attend and were hoping to help make your decision by attending an on-campus event, or in-person alumni event, here are some things you can do to learn more about colleges and universities.
Attend a Virtual Event
Visit the websites of the colleges you are considering attending and look for virtual events for admitted students for the class of 2024. Several colleges are holding online events, or have created video presentations to better acquaint you with the school.
Websites with College Reviews and Tours
Look at websites such as Campus Reel, Niche, and YouTube to read reviews, gain insight, and view virtual tours of campuses.
Social Media Groups for Admitted College Students
Join colleges’ social media groups for admitted students. You will meet other admitted students and gain an idea of how you feel that you will fit in.
Contact the Admissions Office
If you are not finding all the answers you’re seeking from online sources, reach out to the admissions office, or to a specific admissions team member that you may have already communicated with to ask your questions.
Communicate with Students
Connect with current students online or ask the admissions office to refer you to a student that you can communicate with via email, Skype, FaceTime or another video chat.
Best of luck and continued success as you move forward with your education.
