College visit planning

Every campus,
beautifully planned.

Choose a school and a date. We gather the official tour, a hotel worth staying in, a table nearby and everything happening on campus that day.

152 campuses in 45 states, including every member of the Power conferences and the Group of Five.

152 campuses, each with its own day plan

From Cambridge to Honolulu. Every school has verified tour and athletics links, nearby hotels and food, and directions.

What one day looks like

This is the planner's real output for Notre Dame on a Saturday in October. Pick any school and any date and you get the same view, worked out for that day.

Try it with your dates

University of Notre Dame

A Saturday in October

Hotel alert. A major event usually falls this month. Book rooms early or look at a nearby date.

  1. Admissions

    Saturday: limited admissions programs

    Some campuses add Saturday sessions in busy seasons; many don't. Check the official calendar before you plan around one.

  2. Athletics

    Football Saturday — check for a home game

    Home games change traffic, parking and hotel prices. If there's one today, it's also one of the best ways to feel campus spirit.

  3. On campus or in town

    Home football weekends

    Hotels within an hour often sell out and rates rise sharply. Exact dates change each year — confirm before booking.

From a list of schools to a finished trip

Four stops. Most families get through the first three in one evening.

  1. I

    Pick your schools

    Browse campuses by region or on the map. We suggest pairs that sit close together, like Harvard and MIT or Duke and UNC.

  2. II

    Choose dates

    Each date shows whether admissions is open, which sports are in season, and which events will fill the hotels.

  3. III

    See the whole day

    The official tour sign-up, a game to catch, lunch nearby and directions, laid out for each campus.

  4. IV

    Book it, or have us book it

    Do it yourself for free, or let a planner reserve everything for one flat fee with no markups.

One flat fee, shown before you send anything

Choose how much you'd like handled. The fee is never a percentage of your hotel bill.

Questions families ask

Read every answer
Do you replace the official campus tour registration?

No. Colleges run their own information sessions and tours, and every booking goes through the official admissions page. We link you straight to it — or, on paid plans, reserve it for you — so your registration is always on the school's own system.

What does it cost?

Self-Plan is free. Campus Day is $149 per school, Circuit is $449 for up to four schools, and Concierge is $1,190 for up to six. That fee is all we charge: hotels, meals, tickets and travel are paid to the provider at their normal price with no markup.

How fast will I hear back?

A real planner replies within 2 business hours. Monday–Friday 8am–8pm ET and Saturday 9am–5pm ET. Requests sent after hours are answered first thing the next business morning.

How do you know what's happening on campus the day I visit?

For each date we check the day of the week, admissions closures around holidays, which sports are in season and each school's signature events. Then we link you to the official athletics schedule and admissions calendar for exact times, because schools update those constantly.

Can we visit more than one school in a day?

Often, yes — Harvard and MIT, or Duke and UNC, pair well. We sequence morning and afternoon sessions, add drive times and leave buffers so you're never sprinting across a parking lot.

Start with one campus. We'll route the rest.

Pick a school and a date to see the day. When you're ready, a planner can book it — usually within the same afternoon.
