Episode 19: Dan Tudor & Jeremy Tiers On The Problem With Most Campus Tours

For all the time, money and effort spent on getting your prospects to visit campus, once they are actually there, things sometimes fall flat. Such was the case with Dan and his family's recent visit to a college campus. It was a fine campus, with an enthusiastic tour guide, who gave out lots of information about the college. And that is where the problem starts... In this episode of the College Recruiting Weekly podcast, Dan Tudor gives listeners seven key observations about what went right, and what went wrong, during that visit they took. Then, he welcomes today's guest, admissions expert Jeremy Tiers joins the podcast to talk about how admissions departments and coaches can improve the "product" they put on for their visitors. His advice is based on years of research as Admissions Director for Tudor Collegiate Strategies, as well as his time as a college basketball coach. It's a fascinating discussion that will give you direction on how to identify the bad things you may be doing during your visits, as well as what to do differently in the future.
