EF COLLEGE VISIT TOURS


At EF College Visit Tours, we partner with high school college counselors to give students an immersive orientation to the college search that allows them and their families to navigate the selection and application process with confidence. Students do more than just visit college campuses— they participate in workshops, discover criteria that guides their college list, engage in daily debriefs, and practice writing for their essays. Students return home more knowledgeable and in control of their college search.
Help students feel more prepared to take on the college search process
To make informed decisions about where to apply, students need more than information—they need to experience life on campus for themselves. Led by their own college counselor, students who travel on an EF College Visit Tour are given the tools to envision life beyond high school.
-
On campus
Students will explore a variety of campus types and walk away with a list of must-have and must-not-have criteria.
-
In the community
Students will be given the time and space to imagine themselves on and off campus by meeting with current college students, faculty and admissions staff, and exploring the local surroundings.
-
Within themselves
Students will spend time in workshops and daily discussions to develop a better sense of who they are and what they’re looking for.

"At [our school], we require all of our juniors to participate in our college trip program. By the end of our six-day trip, they have a sense of what they are looking for in a college and it helps us, as college counselors, build a college list that is specific to each student’s interests and goals."

"When our daughter came back from this tour, she was able to articulate what she liked, [which] focused our attention on the type of school to look at. This was the best entry into the college search process."
