A Call to College Campus Visits and Registration

Our goal is to provide juniors and seniors with opportunities to attend an out of county campus visit as well as local campus options.  Available campus visit registrations will be posted below as they are offered throughout the academic year.
Virtual College Exploration, provided by The Ohio Association for College Admissions Counseling allows you to explore even more colleges!
