<p>I agree with everything that’s been said. I went to this program when it hit my region of the country as well as one or two other simliar programs that grouped together some high caliber schools. There were hundreds of kids (try to picture a hotel ballroom filled with row after row of seats). Each of the schools gave a nice slideshow presentation. Afterwards, the admission officers entertained questions at individual tables, but it was impossible to even get close! Each table was mobbed by students. </p>
<p>It was definitely not a substitute for visiting in person any of the schools that I was interested in attending. However, if you’re someone who has absolutely no idea about where you want to go to school and are willing to go anywhere in the country, it might be beneficial.</p>
<p>It’s a no stress evening to be sure. My parents insisted that I NOT wear jeans (would not make a good impression they felt). HAH!!! I could have worn anything…nobody would have noticed.</p>
