Campus visits are the best way to experience first-hand what it’s like to be a student at your preferred universities. You can meet current students, speak with staff and faculty, and even attend a lecture. There is not better way to gain a sense for the distinct personality of a university.
For students considering Ontario universities, March is a great time to visit campuses. Virtually all universities ramp up their campus tour offerings. Most offer programming to provide students, and their families, a deeper understanding of the university’s academic programs, support services, and even to sample the campus’ gastronomy.
So, if you don’t have plans to fly south for the break, or plan to be in Ontario, be sure to make time to visit a few campuses. Grab a few friends, plan a road trip and do some campus visits.
