Throughly enjoyed the NSHSS California College Tour due to the excellent tour leaders who were each very personable, the attention to detail regarding all aspects of the tour, and the pristine professionalism of the entire experience!
The NSHSS California tour was AMAZING and I learned so much about what I liked and disliked about many colleges!
We very much enjoyed the CA College Tour. The accommodations were lovely, the food was really good and the tour guides/support staff were phenomenal. We made friends and felt it was a safe, welcoming group of amazing people. It was a great selection of schools which helped my daughter narrow down her top choices. Thank you!
I had a great time in California. I met so many new people and got to really enjoy myself. I also got educated on some of the schools that were at the top of my list.
The California College Tour was an amazing experience! The tour sponsors were professional and personable. Their attention to detail and organizational skills were top-notch. The students were safe at all times. Although each day was busy, the opportunity to see all these campuses was a once in a lifetime experience. My daughter gained so much knowledge from each college tour and this allowed her to narrow her college choices. I highly recommend this to other parents, looking to help their student be prepared to make the best decision for their future.
For us, this was the most economical way to visit these schools. If we had done it on our own, we would never have made the arrangements that this tour provided. Choosing the right college is hard, especially sigh unseen, so this tour helped us at least see the initial school landscape and speak with students who had attended the university.
