Your Campus Evaluation

• Before students attend their college visit, they should create an objective evaluation system to help list important factors worth investigating, leaving space for additional comments. Both you and your parent/ guardians can rate the school after your visit. A numerical scale 1-5 is an easy way to do this: 
  
  

  1 - No way;  2 - Eh; 3 - Others are probably better;  4 - I can see myself here; 5 - This is IT!
  
  

  Colleges are complex institutions. It really isn’t possible to know everything about a college after a brief visit, and even students who have been there for several years might also have a hard time giving you an accurate character reference. Creating an evaluation system is a good way to gather clues about a college.

  To help keep track of college visit experiences, students can complete the College Evaluation Worksheet The College Comparison Worksheet should be used to compare and contrast items noted on a student's college checklist.

  These references will provide a side-by-side comparison of your top schools for students to choose from.
