So summer is over and you did not have a chance to visit all of the colleges on your list. Don’t worry, now you can visit campuses without ever leaving the comforts of home. Here are few virtual campus tour sites to check out:
www.campustours.com: On this site you can search for schools alphabetically or by state. The site offers some statistics on the school, a link to the website and a virtual tour.
www.unigo.com: offers unofficial student reviews of the college or university as well as photos and videos.
www.yourcampus360.com: is a high tech website that offers interactive virtual tours complete with a taking tour guide! However, there are only a few schools featured on this site.
Several schools also offer virtual tours directly on their own website. So whether you are trying to narrow down your list of schools to visit in person or just trying to see another prospective, virtual tours are a great way to research colleges and universities.
