Questions for College Representatives

<p>I have been and will be attending more college seminars for prospective students. What questions do you ask college representatives? I have a bunch in mind, but I want to get your opinion since there my be some aspects I am missing but would be interested in learning.</p>

<p>Thanks for any suggestions.</p>

<p>do a little research on each school and ask the reps about what you find interesting at the school. Try to use the opportunity to gather more info and not just to impress the rep. Keep them from reaching for their default answers-for-students-who-don’t-know-my-school-from-The-New-School file. Ask them about opps to serve the community along the lines you’ve already done at your high school. Ask them what other schools most closely remind them of their school and why. Ask them how much drinking they did when they went to their school and what opps they had to do something other than drink on weekends.</p>

<p>^ yeah, def do your research. I usually ask:</p>

<p>Is the atmosphere more collaborative or competitive?
What differentiates this college from other [type of college] colleges?
If I remembered only one thing about the college, what would you want me to remember?</p>

<p>And then other questions more specific to me, my school, and the programmes at the college.</p>
