FROM A TOUR PARTICIPANT -

“It was a different, elevated college tour, rich with insightful information about the universities, their unique programs, and fun hands-on experiences. After experiencing the personalized and thoughtful Campanile-curated college visits, it will be hard to attend other college tours. I am so grateful for the intimate connection with other counselors, who is sure to become my lifetime colleagues and friends, and consistently pleasant support from Dr. Stone and Margaret with CounselMore. Strongly recommend to other IECs and I will join any other Campanile counselor college tours to come in the future.” Counselor, Oregon
