Make a plan
If the school only gives a tour followed by an interview, then you need to make your travel plans accordingly. Remember to ask the school admissions offices for a list of local lodgings. The important thing to do is to plan on getting there the night before the tour so that you can get a good night's rest.

Prepare questions
Before starting your school visiting, make sure that you have written down all the questions you have about the school. And you also need to make a list of things which you want to see. Then use your travel time and mealtimes to review this list. Don't be afraid to refer to it during the tour and the interview. Remember that being organized and efficient will impress the admissions staff.
Get up early
Getting up early on the day of the visit will help you to relax. Be sure to rise early, eat a nourishing meal, and get to the school ten or fifteen minutes early. Time is always very important. It is always smart to know where on campus you have to go and to allow time for parking and rest stops!
Dress to impress
Dressing can play an important role in your plan, for it will decide what kind of impression you are intended to leave on other people's mind. Remember this is not the appropriate time for a fashion statement! Dress sensibly and comfortably! Be yourself. Remember that the process works both ways: you are looking over the school, and the school is looking over you.
Show good manners to your tour guide
During a school visit, in most cases your tour guide will be a student. He or she will probably make written observations about you. So be alert. If you are not in a group tour, be sure to ask pertinent questions and be interested in the facts which are proffered. Even if you decide that you can't stand this school right there and then, good manners require that you put on your best face and soldier on.
Take notes
The notes you have taken in the process of visiting will be useful for your decision making. When the tour is over, remember to spend a few minutes reviewing your impressions and compare notes. Then think about the impression the school has let on you and your idea about it.
