CAMPUS
CRUISING
A campus tour is one of the best ways to decide if a school is the right fit for you. However, it can be difficult, time consuming and expensive to visit school campuses in person; this space is dedicated to provide you with a virtual experience to explore different univeristy, community college, technical school, and trade school campuses. We will also display updated application and financial aid information as well as virtual events from schools that provide it. Let's go!
Below you will find CampusTours which builds video tours, photorealistic interactive campus maps, mobile walking tours and custom data-driven multimedia applications for clients worldwide. Search thousands of campuses and take a virtual tour of your favorites! You will also find important admissions information for each school as well. *Please note that not all schools provide virtual tours.
College Comparison
There are more than 2,000 colleges in the United States! That's a lot of choices, and finding the right fit for you can seem like a daunting task! Enter College Board Big Future.... this site has a great college comparison tool for you to use to compare your top three schools! It will show you tuition rates, size of each campus, location, admissions requirements, financial aid information, etc.. Try it out! It might just help you narrow down your top choices when creating your post-secondary plan.
