“So, How’d It Go?” How Uni Reps & Counselors Determine Success in High School Visits

Thursday, July 16, 2026 at 11:00 AM–12:00 PM EDT
Posvar 1500
Session Description

This session will focus on how university representatives and high school counselors assess the quality of a high school visit. Presenters, from both sides of the desk, will share what metrics matter, how this impacts plans to return, and how they document this in their respective CRMs (Slate, Blackthorn, etc.). The goal is to share and demystify how “the other side” assesses a visit to be fruitful and, ultimately, how to bring the most value to the students, counselors, parents, and universities alike. The session will include four panelists' experiences, plus opportunities for group discussion, in hopes of “building bridges” and gleaning insights from our colleagues.
