📌 Why Questions Matter

Campus tours are your chance to see beyond the marketing materials.
Good questions show admissions officers you’re serious—and help you decide if the school is truly the right fit.

✅ Questions About Academics

  • What’s the average class size for first-year courses?

  • Are professors or teaching assistants the primary instructors?

  • What research opportunities are available for undergraduates?

✅ Questions About Campus Life

  • How does the school support first-year students?

  • What are the most popular student organizations?

  • How is housing assigned, and are there living-learning communities?

✅ Questions About Career Support

  • What percentage of graduates are employed or in grad school within 6 months?

  • Does the school offer internship placement assistance?

  • Are there career fairs or employer networking events on campus?

✅ Questions About Financial Aid & Scholarships

  • Are merit scholarships renewable each year?

  • How does the school handle financial aid appeals?

✅ Bonus Tip: Ask Students, Not Just Staff

Current students can give you honest, unfiltered feedback about life on campus.
