The Value of The Visit
Arizona native shares story on how visit helped her decide between two schools
BY SARAH MITCHELL
I am a recent graduate of Ironwood High School in Glendale, Arizona and I’m now
getting ready to head off to the University of Arizona in Tucson!
I moved twice during my high school years, so you could say that I started my
college search a little late. I went in to see the guidance counselor a couple
months into my senior year. I liked the area around Arizona State University and
I knew that they gave tuition waivers to the top 10% of students in a graduating
class, so I had always thought of myself as attending school there, but I had no
idea where to start. She gave me an application to ASU and U of A and urged me
to make a college visit. Just a few weeks later, I was taking my first tour of
the ASU campus.
