Explore your post-high school options with
campus visits, in-person or virtually!
Campus tours help students make decisions about what kind of education to seek after high school and where to go to get that education. Students who tour campuses are 50% more likely to pursue education after high school. Students with a parent or guardian that participates in visits are three times more likely.
If visiting in person is not an option, you can take virtual tours to learn about different post-high school pathways.
See firsthand and hear directly from college and training staff about:
- Apprenticeships.
- On-the-job training programs.
- Community college certificates.
- Two- and four-year degree programs and schools.
- Student life on campus.
- Available support resources.
Use what you know about yourself and what you learn during the visit to:
- Reflect on your preferences.
- Think about what you need to thrive socially, academically, and financially in that environment.
- Narrow down your choices.
- Use a student reflection guide to help through the process.
