East Coast College Tour
Selecting the right university can be one of the most important and difficult decisions each student needs to make. East Coast College Tour helps students unpack and demystify this important process. Students grades 10-12 begin this chaperoned trip with a full day touring historic Boston. Then over the course of the next five days students visit nearly a dozen prestigious schools among which are notables such as Harvard, Tufts, Boston University, Yale, MIT, NYU, UPenn, Columbia, Georgetown and George Washington. Students spend each evening with their chaperones experiencing the local area in each college town from Time Square in New York City to Historic Downtown Philadelphia in Pennsylvania. During the day students experience the University Campuses with a private or admissions office tour and admissions office information sessions. Throughout the week students learn what they love and don't love about each city, campus and university. They also learn what each university is looking for during the admissions process. Chaperoned flight options from the West Coast are available. ECCT is a great mix of education, culture and fun.
