A <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/college-tour-guide\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">campus tour<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> lets you see a college or university up close.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">College tours give you the ability to engage with the space where you will study. It\u2019s a chance to see classrooms, playing fields, social spaces, and dining halls. It\u2019s the best way to sense how you might fit in.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s also the ideal time to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/kristenmoon\/2022\/04\/21\/college-admissions-5-ways-to-get-a-head-start-this-summer\/?sh=ddf0386359fe\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">get answers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. You may not have all the answers from looking at websites and checking out message boards. When you\u2019re on campus, you can get direct answers to your questions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Don\u2019t be shy about asking questions during your college campus tours. You can even keep your questions on a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/college-tour-checklist\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">college tour checklist <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">to make sure you get answers to those burning questions. Having questions ready will help you sort through the many colleges you\u2019ll likely visit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Here are 16 questions to ask during your college campus tour.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. What Do You Like Most About Your College?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You will meet many students during college campus visits. The<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">y are the best source of information that shares how they feel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">College students usually are very willing to talk about their experiences. Knowing what excites them the most about their college life is important information for you to learn.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. What Is Your Favorite Class?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-25592\" src=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/220406-Fogarty-Class-047-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"382\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/220406-Fogarty-Class-047-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/220406-Fogarty-Class-047.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 382px) 100vw, 382px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Academics are obviously an important part of the college experience. It doesn\u2019t matter whether the person you speak with is in the same program you are. It doesn\u2019t matter if they have the same major.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What does matter is what they say excites them academically. It\u2019s important to be at a campus that lets students explore what is most important to them. College is a great opportunity to explore an academic passion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">During university tours,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> don\u2019t be afraid to learn more about how students experience academic life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You can also ask this question of any faculty members you meet. You want to learn from instructors who are passionate about what they teach. You want them to have an infectious enthusiasm for learning, discovery and curiosity.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Why Did You Choose This School?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Every student has a reason for choosing the campus. Some of them are deeply personal. Others are attracted to a particular major or program. Others love the beauty of the campus. Find out by asking students why they opted for this school over others. The answers can be illuminating.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. What Is School Spirit Like?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There\u2019s often an intangible \u201cvibe\u201d to a college campus. Are there lots of students wearing school clothing? Are students enthusiastic about events \u2013 speakers, panels and discussions? Do students cheer on the athletic teams?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">School spirit can be hard to define, but that doesn\u2019t mean you shouldn\u2019t ask students about it. Let <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">them<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> define school spirit. If they love their school, they\u2019ll be able to identify it in their own words. If the answers you get are lukewarm, that\u2019s a sign, too.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. What\u2019s Your Biggest Complaint About the School?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This may seem like an uncomfortable question to ask, but it\u2019s an important one. No campus is perfect. Finding out what college students dislike about a campus can be eye-opening. It can be just as important as finding out what a student loves the most.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>6. How Accessible are Faculty and Staff?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-25595 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/6K1A0214-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/6K1A0214-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/6K1A0214-272x182.jpg 272w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/6K1A0214.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You may have a burning question about a lecture or have trouble with a homework assignment. Maybe you just want to continue a compelling conversation about a topic raised in class.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">No matter the reason, having access to faculty and staff is important. Faculty should be engaged in the life of the campus, available for office hours or informal conversations. They are there to help you learn. Find out from students about how they engage with faculty and how they feel about those interactions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>7. How Is the Food on Campus?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Does campus food matter? Absolutely! This question is especially important if you\u2019re a picky eater or you have dietary or religious restrictions. If you are allergic to gluten, dairy, or tree nuts, for example, you want to be sure<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Obviously, you\u2019ll want to ask about the quality of the food, the variety, and how it tastes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There\u2019s another factor with food to explore. Think about how important gathering around a table is for conversation about the day and life. In college, meal times are an incredible chance to catch up with friends, laugh, decompress and share. If the food is great, these times will linger and deepen relationships.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>8. What Is the Social Life Like?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You spend a fair bit of time in classes and labs. You will have to find a study space to work on homework and reading assignments. But that still leaves lots of room for enjoying the campus.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Find out how students have fun on campus. What are the parties like? Are students hosting those parties? Do they occur in dorm rooms or off campus?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ask about concerts by student performance groups and outside acts. Are there student music performances or theater groups that put on plays and musicals? These parts of the campus life are a part of the fabric of the college experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What else do students do for fun, either on campus or off? Finding out how students spend their free time is an important consideration.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>9. What Do Students Do Outside the Classroom?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Students often participate in clubs and other activities while not studying. Some clubs are related to academics \u2013 mock trials, Model United Nations are two active examples. Others are related to identity, such as organizations for students of a particular race, ethnicity, religion, or culture. Publications, such as a student newspaper, magazines, or radio stations, are also a popular segment. A cappella groups, improv comedy troupes, theater companies, and choruses and orchestras also are frequent on a college campus.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Find out by asking questions about activities you might want to participate in. Learn if these groups are run by students or have a faculty advisor. Are there leadership opportunities for students who participate in clubs and organizations?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You may even find that the student you ask participates in that activity or knows someone they can connect you to.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>10. What Is a Typical Day Like?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Find out how frequently students you meet are in class or labs, studying, and hanging out with friends. If they are athletes, ask about how much time is spent in practices and away from campus for competitions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Getting a sense of a typical day can help you see yourself in a similar situation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>11. What Is Dorm Life Like?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-25598\" src=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/190328-UC2-0240-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"395\" height=\"262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/190328-UC2-0240-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/190328-UC2-0240.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 395px) 100vw, 395px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dorms are vibrant, exciting places, with people from across the country and the world living together. Dorms can be great opportunities to make friends and learn about each other.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ask about the size and configuration of a dorm room. Be sure you know what storage space is available. Are the rooms air conditioned?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Students can tell you how noisy dorms are and when. They can also share whether people usually study in their dorm rooms, the library, or other locations.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>12. What Makes the Student Body Unique?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Each student body, each class at a university, has a collective personality. Some college campuses tend to attract certain types of students.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By asking students to describe their fellow students and what sets them apart, you\u2019ll get a better sense as to whether the college or university is a good fit for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>13. Are There Volunteer Opportunities?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finding ways to help the community is an important component of many college experiences. Some colleges even have offices that help connect students with local volunteer opportunities. If volunteering is an important part of who you are, ask about these changes to give back.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>14. How Effective is Career Support?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Colleges are experiences that include preparing you for a career. Whether you\u2019re planning to go on to graduate school or into the workforce, you will need guidance. Career centers include trained staff who are experts in helping students navigate career exploration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Career centers can help you apply for internships, fellowships, and summer jobs. They may even have access to funds to support your career exploration with alumni, employers, and experiences.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-25601 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/210820-Move-In-297-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"340\" height=\"226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/210820-Move-In-297-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/210820-Move-In-297-272x182.jpg 272w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/admissions\/files\/2022\/07\/210820-Move-In-297.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 340px) 100vw, 340px\" \/>15. What Are the Best Campus Traditions?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Each campus has its <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/campusgrotto.com\/the-100-greatest-college-traditions.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">unique traditions<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Learn what those special moments are by asking what they are. Discover how people participate in these traditions and whether they are valued and why.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>16. What Advice Would You Have for an Incoming Freshman?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This question may give you some of the best insights of any during college campus visits. And you don\u2019t need to limit the question to students. Ask admissions officers, faculty members, and others you meet. You are likely to get a variety of answers. Like with many things in college, you will need to assess these different ideas to form your own conclusions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A college visit is such an incredible time for you to learn about a campus and how it lives and breathes. Having a good set of questions ready will help add new dimensions to your college visit.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The college tour is an incredible opportunity for students and their families.
