Video tour in lieu of acutally going there!?

<p>I am wondering whether I should just buy some videos and watch them whether than just going there. </p>

<p>The videos are from <a href=“http://www.collegiatechoice.com/[/url]”>http://www.collegiatechoice.com/</a></p>

<p>I will probably get the ones for UC davis, UC irvine, UCLA, and UCSD. I am going to one of these colleges in the fall and I want to see them before I choose, I am having a tough time deciding. I can also just take a week off of work ( I am a senior and work 25-30 hours/week during the schoolyear) and drive there and actually visit the campus. But I am really short on money and I am wondering if these videos are worth it (fifteen bucks each).</p>

<p>Anybody seen these videos before? Is it really worth it to drive there? btw, how old are these videos?</p>

<p>If you read the page it says "Oh, and yes, we still expect you to make an in-person visit."</p>

<p>I doubt a homemade video can capture the beauty and character of Davis.</p>

<p>waste of dough</p>
