Choose your guide
No matter your academic interests or background, find someone you can relate to—that person who can give you insight into what your experience might be like at the university.
Choose your experience
Every guide handpicks authentic parts of their student experience to share with you. Check out their favorite lunch spot, get the classic all-you-can-eat meal at the dining hall, or even get ice cream together from the university dairy. Most guides offer multiple options, so choose the one that you’re most excited to check out.
Genuine Conversation
Hear about the guide’s experience at the university and get a first-hand, unscripted perspective on what it’s like being a student there. Feel free to ask as many questions as you want, seek advice, and discuss topics not covered on traditional tours.
Take your visit to a new level
Make the big campus tour the beginning of your college visit, not the end. After going on your university-sponsored group tour to see campus, spend time with a guide to get a feel for and hear about the student experience.
