<p>So I'm taking a Self-Guided Tour of UCSB next sunday. I'm just wondering all the places I can visit. Can I see the dorms, the gym, the library, etc.?</p>
<p>even though on their website it says that they are booked for tours, you can still just stop by and you will be guaranteed a tour. i just went today without a reservation and got the same guided tour as all the people with reservations. it was fun and informative and i suggest you do that if you can</p>
<p>do this: tour on a weekday instead, and ask random students what they like the most about the school, and what they like the least; then go to the building where your major’s department is based and and see if a prof there is holding office hours…talk to him/her about his field.</p>
