Explore College Options Together
Junior year families: We encourage families to begin exploring college options together. The summer months are excellent times for juniors and their families to visit college campuses, as schedules tend to be more flexible and students can start learning about academic programs, campus life, and admissions before senior year. Many Washington State colleges offer guided tours, information sessions, and self‑guided visits throughout the spring and summer. Visiting campuses early can help students better understand what they are looking for in a college and feel more confident heading into the college application process.
Below are links to a few Washington colleges where families can schedule campus tours or virtual visits:
- University of Washington (Seattle, Bothell, Tacoma)
- Washington State University (All Campuses)
- Western Washington University
- Central Washington University
- Seattle University
- Washington Community & Technical Colleges
We encourage families to explore these options and begin planning visits that work best for your schedule. Please feel free to reach out if you have questions or would like help identifying colleges that may be a good fit for your student.
