<p>I don’t think that not visiting a state school would affect her admissions chances. That would probably only matter at a safety liberal arts school which would probably track interest, see that she hadn’t visited and was overqualified, and waitlist her. It makes me nervous to hear that she is so unenthusiastic about and hasn’t visited her safeties. The purpose of a safety is to have a college that you are pretty much certain you will get into and would be happy to attend if you got in nowhere else. What if she only gets into her safeties and ends up hating them? That should be taken into consideration.</p>
