This Thursday, NYC public high schools are only in session for staff. This leaves a great opportunity for students to make local college visits - a rare chance to see a school on a week day. This means a higher likelihood of talking with professors, seeing students on campus, and visiting a class (even if it is a summer school class).
Not sure where to start? First, visit the website of the school you are interested in and locate the portion of the website that deals with visits and school tours. Most schools will offer both an information session and a student led tour. Pre-register whenever possible, though I've yet to hear of a school that turned away a walk-in. Be sure to sign in once you get there though, in case the college tracks demonstrated interest.
Need help? Here are some local schools that you could easily get to in one day - some just via the MTA!
