<p>Again, lots of good choices. I agree that accepted student days sometimes give<br>
a “company’s coming” impression that may not be realistic. </p>
<p>Do you mean your current high school restricts your visits and you might have an unexcused absence? This is too big of a decision, in my opinion. Just go. And of course, financial aid packages should always be a big piece of the picture. Especially in your case when all the choices are stellar. You would not be “settling” for any school if you stuck with the best no loan/few loan policies.</p>
