I would say visit it on a regular day, outside of an "admissions visit" group setting. That's the one thing I wished I would have done when I visited Carolina. If its out of state, how much does it cost to get to the airport? Can freshmen have cars? What is the surrounding community like when school is NOT in session? And ditto to the showers/dorm rooms/residence halls. How far is it to walk from the dorm to the main campus? Is there free campus transportation? Check out the libraries. Visit on a weekend when school is not in session. Then write down what you've observed, and try not to let the parents' influence your decision TOO much. *wink*
