Admissions tour
A trip where admissions leaders from U.S. boarding schools, sometimes heads of school, travel to a country to meet students and families before anyone applies.
Why it matters
When the application later arrives, the school already knows the child and the family. Nothing is decided at the meeting; it is where the relationship starts.
Who decides
Schools choose which tours to join; admission is decided later, through the normal process.
Not sure what this means for your child?
A GESP consultant can explain the term in the context of your family's own plan.
