Which colleges value visits the most when considering for admission...?

College Search & Selection
1

<p>I am very tight with money and want to take into consideration which colleges will value my visit the most, when they are considering me for admission (assuming I would still apply after the visit). While this wouldn't be the sole factor in deciding which colleges to visit, it might help in certain instances.</p>

<p>This is the complete list of Universities I am highly interested in. I have already done extensive research of all of them. To which would a visit most benefit me during admissions? I have heard that most private Universities value demonstrated interest from applicants. I have also heard that Brown, which is on my list, doesn't even record who visited them. Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Harvard
MIT
Yale
Princeton
Stanford
Columbia
Dartmouth
Penn (Wharton)
Brown
Georgetown (SFS)
USC (Marshall)
Emory</p>

<p>UC Berkeley
UCLA
UCSD<br>
UCSB</p>

<p>A lot of websites actually say that “demonstrated interest” in a factor. You can also find this in their common data sets - where it gives a value to the interview.</p>

<p>I know Emory takes it into consideration… however, you can show interest in Emory in other ways by ordering a VideoVisit, emailing professors/admission reps, or meeting with an admissions rep at your high school or hometown.</p>

<p>On that list, only Emory.</p>

<p>yeah demonstrated interest, this can range from asking questions to admissions officers through email or requesting information, interviews or college visits</p>
