College Prep

While you won’t be applying to colleges for a while, you can still get a leg up on
the competition by taking virtual campus tours for colleges of interest. Knowing
what campuses look like, what their buildings look like and where things are
located can put your mind at ease. Plus, it shows you how beautiful some
colleges really are.

The best part about it is you don’t have to leave the comfort of your home. Just
visit the websites of colleges you’re interested in and click on the virtual tour link
(or something similar). You’ll learn a lot and won’t have to spend a dime. Plus, it
can be kind of fun to browse around these different campuses.

Above all else, you’ll be further preparing yourself for the college experience.
Just the act of searching through college websites and locating the virtual tour
section is a good exercise. You’ll need to become increasingly efficient when
using college websites, or any website for that matter, as your high school career
moves forward.
