Description: With the ever-rising costs of a college education, it's vital to have as much information as possible about prospective schools in order to make an educated choice. The Princeton Review's Visiting College Campuses is an invaluable one-stop source for planning a campus visit, with comprehensive information on over 250 of the most toured college campuses. Visiting College Campuses makes it easy for parents and students to plan trips to schools that they are already interested in and points out other schools in the same area that they might not have considered before. The books shows students what questions they should be asking in on an interview, such as how big is the school, what is the school's environment, and what are the students are like. Entries include:
-- Maps and directions by car, bus, train, or plane
-- How to meet professors and sit in on classes
-- Hotels, motels, & B&B's for every budget
-- Local museums, parks, events, and attractions
-- How and when to schedule interviews with admissions officers & faculty

The book includes state maps that plot out each school's location, a state-by-state academic calendar, and tour schedules for every school. These features (and several others) make planning a visit itinerary a snap.

A useful index of mileage charts lets travelers know the exact distance between schools in specific regions of the country so that they can plot the most efficient trip.
