As summer turns to fall and your senior year begins it is time to focus your attention to the college selection process. Colleges and universities are full of bright campus colors as the school year begins and current students return to campus beaming with excitement!
As you continue to narrow your choices, it is important to know that many excellent institutions in this world offer an outstanding education. What many families don't realize initially is the importance of identifying the place where you will feel most comfortable. The institution you select will be your home for nine months per year for the next four years. Please make sure you visit multiple campuses and find the place that feels like home to you.
This video link highlights some of the things MacKenzie thinks are important for you to remember when visiting campuses.

Todd's Tidbits!
1) Make sure you visit campus during the week, when classes are in session and you can see campus in its most vibrant state!
2) If you do make a weekend visit, check out the parking lots to see how many cars are on campus.
3) Ask lots of questions, especially of your student tour guide. Find out what it truly is like to be a student on campus.
We hope that you find the college that feels like "home" and will be the right place for a fulfilling experience. We certainly believe that Wartburg College is that kind of place. Before you make that final decision this year, we hope you come and visit our campus and learn more about our distinctive learning environment.
