<p>I ask this because Georgia Tech (my top choice) is visiting my Connecticut high school this upcoming week. I checked Naviance and only 4 kids have applied since 2007, so why would they take the time to visit my school? Also, I checked Naviance for a couple other nearby high schools and Tech is not visiting them. </p>
<p>Could I view this as a good sign?</p>
<p>Most likely you’re reading too much into it.</p>
<p>There must be an explanation though.
I’m sure they don’t pick schools at random.</p>
<p>Exposure to kids whose parents can afford to pay full freight to GTech if they attend</p>
<p>They don’t pick them at random. Something about your school suggests likelihood of applications. That doesn’t mean that you, in particular, have any edge however. It’s blanket marketing.</p>
<p>Or it may be as simple as GA Tech they were traveling to CT, and your HS had an available slot that fit their schedule. Maybe they hadn’t visited in a while and why not.</p>
<p>Who knows. I wouldn’t take their visit (or lack of a visit) as having much impact on any individual application.</p>
<p>In addition to what zephyr said, I would speculate that the better high schools in an area are more targeted with visits.</p>
<p>Yes, it is a good sign…you have a chance to speak directly with a rep from your top choice school. Be prepared and be thankful for the opportunity.</p>
