The Ultimate
COLLEGE TOUR CHECKLIST
A practical guide for students and parents to eliminate the overwhelming stress, fear and frustration from the college search process
THINK COLLEGE TOURS ARE EASY? THINK AGAIN. Dear Discerning Family, The standard college tour is full of friction points most people don’t realize until it’s too late. Don’t let this frustrating scenario happen to you:
You visit a website and select your dates. You make the hotel reservation, take the journey and prepare a few questions. The rest will come to you as you’re exploring the campus, right? Then, chaos ensues. You circle the parking lot in search of an empty space and find one almost a mile from campus. You rush to arrive on time, then you’re shuffled away with a college tour guide and dozens of other prospective students and parents like yourselves. You’re herded from here to there on foot faster than you can stop and smell the cafeteria. Parents fight for the opportunity to ask questions over each other. Prospective students are too busy checking out their phone screens, and then, it’s over. Did you get to ask that question that was so important? You can’t remember. You’re exhausted and relieved to see your hotel room. On the next tour, the process repeats itself.
YOU SAY TO YOURSELF,
THERE MUST BE A BETTER WAY.

CAMPUS EXPERIENCE The college experience isn’t limited to the classroom. In fact, there are 168 hours in a week, and students will be in class approximately 20 of those hours. What will the other 148 consist of? For four years, students are choosing one campus to call home. What will it be like living independently for the first time? What resources are available to make new surroundings comfortable? Here are important questions you should ask to uncover the type of environment each school offers:

What security measures or features does your campus provide?

ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS:
’S
A national reporter wrote that college is about “having your brain stripped bare and then rebuilt.” While many colleges believe this, HPU instead strives to model the values your family holds dear. At successful campuses, you can clearly see and feel their values and virtues when visiting. If the school’s values and virtues aren’t apparent, ask why, and what are those values and virtues? It’s clear that HPU’s culture is one filled with positivity, and we proudly celebrate gratitude, patriotism, generosity and civility.
A
Your family’s values and faith are the most important aspects of your lives! Look for visual indicators and resources that support students in fostering their faith. HPU honors our Christian roots and is a God, family and country school. Our campus includes a chapel, a full-time minister and abundant opportunities to practice one’s faith. At the same time, HPU welcomes and supports students of all faiths.
A
American flags and patriotic tributes are abundant on HPU’s campus. Our university strives to model the principles on which our nation was founded, including personal initiative, the entrepreneurial spirit and free enterprise. Students learn from industry titans and develop business ventures. In addition, HPU’s Annual Veterans Day Celebration honors 1,500 veterans and their family members.
A
Yes! A full-time doctor leads HPU’s Student Health Services along with a staff of physician assistants, nurse practitioners and more. Students have access to quality care on our campus. HPU’s new, 6,500-square-foot student health facility provides a separate entrance for students with respiratory symptoms. And, in the case of a global pandemic like COVID-19, the university also has plans to relocate any student at risk of having the virus to a comfortable, quarantine environment.
A
HPU’s Campus Concierge is available 14 hours per day both in-person and online to assist not just students but their parents with any question or need that may arise. The Concierge serves as a one-stop source for all things students and their parents need to know about HPU even before arriving to campus freshman year.
A
BIG PICTURE:
Values are one of the most critical aspects of a student’s success, but often the most overlooked concern when picking a college. Do you feel your values will be upheld at this school?
VALUES-BASED LIVING AND LEARNING
HPU provides every freshman a Success Coach, a professional staff member whose sole responsibility is to guide students in their transition to college and connect them with other campus resources like the Office of Career and Professional Development. From their professors, to their career advisor, to their peer mentor — an upperclassman who mentors new students — students are supported in numerous ways at HPU.
A
REAL-LIFE PREPARATION We live in a world that demands more than the technical skills a degree provides. A student’s college education shouldn’t merely focus on the attainment of a diploma, but the process of earning that diploma should ensure a successful future. Time on a college campus should supply students with the life skills and career readiness employers are looking for. Here are questions you should ask regarding a college’s career preparation programs:
Q
AT WHAT MAJOR COMPANIES do your students get internships and jobs? _________________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Q
What’s the name of the program that connects young successful alumni on campus to MENTOR CURRENT STUDENTS, and how often are alumni on campus?
______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________
Q
WHAT IS YOUR SIX-MONTH PLACEMENT RATE FOR GRADUATES?
Pro-tip: Six months after graduation is the national standard by which schools should report. If they give you a rate based on longer than six months, ask them why. If it’s not easily available or seen, ask yourself “why?” ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________
Q
WHAT TUITION-FREE MASTER’S PROGRAMS do you offer that directly enhance life skills?
______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________
Q
What other industries did your COLLEGE PRESIDENT work in before taking on leadership of the university? Does the president teach a class for first-year students?
______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________
Q
Outside of classwork, where on this campus are LIFE SKILLS, such as professional etiquette, taught to freshmen?

HPU students and graduates power some of the world’s top-tier companies such as Google, Facebook, Amazon, the NBA, Apple and the Smithsonian, just to name a few. They intern on Capitol Hill, with the MLB or with Big Four investment firms. You can see where HPU takes students by visiting www.highpoint.edu/outcomes.
A
HPU’s All-Star Alumni Program brings HPU graduates who work for companies like Rolling Stone Magazine, NBCUniversal, JP Morgan Chase, plus those who are leading careers as doctors and attorneys, back to campus to mentor and connect with current students multiple times throughout each semester.
A
99% of HPU students are employed or continuing their education within 180 days of graduation! That’s 14 points higher than the national average. HPU’s Office of Career and Professional Development works closely with students to determine their career goals and make them a reality with resume support, mock interviews, bringing employers to campus and more.
A
In an innovative approach to education, HPU offers undergraduate students the opportunity to obtain a tuition-free master’s degree in areas such as healthcare management, biomedical sciences, communication and business leadership, educational leadership, plus many others. These tuition-free master’s degrees are available to students who complete their undergraduate degree at HPU. You pay $0 tuition for a degree that costs between $40,000 and $80,000. On top of that, graduate degree recipients earn, on average, $17,000 more per year than undergraduate degree recipients, and these benefits are underscored by the fact that 100% of HPU’s advanced degree holders are employed within 180 days of graduating. See the full lineup of tuition-free master’s degree offerings at: www.highpoint.edu/tuition-free-masters-degrees.

Yes! HPU President Nido Qubein, is a business leader, entrepreneur, internationally known author and consultant who has given more than 7,500 presentations worldwide.

He is also a constant presence on campus, frequently stopping to talk to students on the International Promenade or in the Slane Café.
A
BIG PICTURE:
A degree alone is not enough. Employers are looking for life skills in their hires, not just the learned technical skills that expire quickly in our fast-paced world. Remember: Your college investment is not just four years, it’s for life.
REAL-LIFE PREPARATION
HPU’s campus is a 500-acre classroom. As one example, students receive four years of career preparation inside 1924 PRIME, HPU’s fine-dining restaurant and learning laboratory. Here, they practice their interview skills weekly over complimentary dinner and are exposed to a wide variety of cuisines. Beyond that, campus buildings resemble the features of a Fortune 500 company and unique study spaces mimic real-world interaction, like the interior of an airplane, allowing students to practice social interactions that will be necessary as they enter the workforce.
A
ACADEMIC INNOVATION Life beyond college graduation includes a fast-paced workforce that’s ever-evolving. To best serve students, universities must also evolve by continually adapting curriculum, faculty, programming, technology and facilities so students are prepared for the world not as it is but as it is going to be. Here are questions that will help you assess if various colleges have innovated their campuses with student advancement in mind:
Q
In addition to your faculty, WHAT INNOVATORS AND GLOBAL LEADERS regularly visit campus to mentor students?
_______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________
Q
I DON’T KNOW WHAT I WANT TO MAJOR IN. Do you have a program or specific advisors that will guide me?
______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________
Q
What EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING opportunities do you offer? ________________________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________________________
Q
WHAT ARE CLASS SIZES LIKE? Pro-tip: Don’t be fooled by faculty/student ratios. Some faculty
don’t teach classes but are counted in this equation. Ask instead for the average undergraduate class size (number of students physically in a class), and ask to see the largest classrooms on campus! ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________
Q
CAN STUDENTS PARTICIPATE IN RESEARCH EVEN AS FRESHMEN? If yes, what program matches them with faculty mentors?
______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________

This is common! Nearly half of all college students nationally change their major, and many enter college not knowing what they want to major in. At High Point University, we partner with students to help them discover an academic pursuit they are passionate about. We call this process Project Discovery. Guided by a personal Success Coach, this program includes classes, self-assessments, meetings with professors and upperclassmen with similar interests, and more! Learn more at www.highpoint.edu/ProjectDiscovery.

As The Premier Life Skills University, HPU provides holistic learning programs that take students outside the classroom and into real-world scenarios, including the Survey Research Center, where students develop, conduct, analyze and publish statewide poll data; the Entrepreneurship Center, where students pitch their latest business model; Service Learning programs that allow students to work for organizations off campus while earning class credit; and much more.
A
The average class size at HPU is 15 students. Classes are also led entirely by faculty as opposed to graduate teaching assistants. This allows more opportunity for mentorship between faculty and students.
A
Unlike other universities, students at HPU don’t have to wait until they’re upperclassmen to begin research. Research Rookies is a special program that incorporates freshmen into the university’s culture of scholarly research and matches them with a faculty-led research project. No matter a student’s major, getting involved in research or creative works helps students build unique credentials like critical thinking, communication and problem-solving that distinguish them from the 2 million other students they will graduate among and compete with for jobs or entrance into graduate and professional schools!

But we have a call to action. “Choose To Be Extraordinary!” Our promise is: At High Point University, every student receives an extraordinary education in an inspiring environment with caring people.

PARENT PERSPECTIVES On our tour, the students guiding us were so positive when they talked about their experience. They had an excited energy. It’s like when you show off your new home to family and friends. You’re proud of what you’ve done and where you live. It was that same emotion coming from the students. The students talked about the campus like their home and the people there like their family. That really spoke to us. On tours of other schools, the students didn’t hold their heads up. They didn’t hold the door for each other or smile. They were glum, and it brought down the mood of the entire campus. We realized quickly that it’s hard to match HPU.”
When my eldest son and I were looking at schools, HPU was on the need-to-visit list. When we visited the university in the spring of 2014, we were extremely impressed by the campus, its environment and the people we met. There’s one thing I heard that day, and it’s still as memorable to me now as if it was said yesterday. During the tour, as our tour guide was driving us, I asked her if she could show us something mediocre. She stopped the golf cart, looked me in the eyes and said — “This is High Point University. We don’t have anything mediocre.” How accurate she was.” -Tom Schorn | HPU Parent of Thomas, ’18; Chris, ’20 and Sylvester, ‘22
-Evelyn Kubanka | HPU Parent of Kyle, ’18; Tyler, ’19; Ryan, ’22 and Troy, ‘25
Up until our HPU tour, no other college had made it personal. Not one school talked about the real world. Not one school talked about God, family and country. Not one school talked about preparing my daughter with life skills. Not one school, until that very moment, made us feel at home. High Point University was that school. The fact that the campus, faculty and staff are amazing is a huge bonus, but the real reason we chose HPU was for its extraordinary education and the university’s values and beliefs. That’s what sets HPU apart from all the others we had considered. We knew High Point would teach her lessons that last a lifetime.” -Shannon Gonzalez | HPU Parent of Emily, ‘22
We saw and felt things at HPU that we hadn’t felt at other universities. Aside from being one of the most beautiful campuses we’ve ever seen, there are so many purposeful, little things that matter on the HPU campus. While standing inside the Wilson School of Commerce, our guide explained that the purpose behind the building’s design was to make the students feel as if they were walking into a Fortune 500 company every day. It was a means of preparing them for the real working world. Wow! At that moment we got it. We looked at each other and knew we wanted our daughters at HPU. It was hard to contain our excitement and enthusiasm, not wanting to overly influence our daughter’s decision. We just hoped she had the same feeling. Turns out, she did. We were ecstatic when our younger daughter chose to attend HPU as well.” -Ken and Stephanie Casper | HPU Parents of Emily, ’19 and Molly, ‘21
