Transfer Tip -- The Campus Visit
Where to visit on campus:

Ask to observe a class (this may require advance notice).

Talk to a professor in your area of interest (you will need an appointment).

If you are a biology major, check out the labs. If you are a music major, check out the music rooms.

Visit the student union, library, and places where students hang out. If you plan to live on campus, visit a resident hall. During your visit ask other students what they like and dislike at the college. Choosing a college may make you nervous.

But, if the school offers the major you need and the social activities and lifestyle you want, and you feel comfortable in the setting, chances are it will be a good fit for you.
