A Brochure Cannot Make a Counselor an Advocate. A Campus Visit Can.
College counselors are the advisors families trust most when narrowing down university choices. Most US counselors have never set foot on a UK campus, and recommending a university they have only seen in a brochure or a webinar is a much harder sell than recommending one they have walked through themselves.
A counselor who has met your admissions team, sat in your lecture halls, and talked to your current students becomes a genuine advocate for your university, not just someone repeating marketing copy to their students.

Hear From Counselors Who Have Visited UK Campuses
Campus Visits Are Our Most Immersive Option. Events and Outreach Reaches More Counselors.
A counselor tour brings a curated group of advisors directly to your campus for a firsthand experience of your institution. Events and outreach, including our conferences, UK Admissions Academy sponsorship, and community live sessions, connects your university with a broader pool of counselors across multiple touchpoints throughout the year. Many universities combine both for a complete strategy.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is a tour priced?
Pricing depends on the group size and format you choose, whether that is a full group of up to 40 counselors, a smaller curated group of 15, or a half-day visit paired with a nearby university. We will walk through the options that fit your goals on a discovery call.
How do you select which counselors attend?
We curate each tour group from our network of engaged US college counselors who are actively advising students on international options, so participating universities meet counselors who are genuinely positioned to recommend them.
What do counselors do with their experience after the tour?
Counselors leave with firsthand knowledge of your campus, programs, and admissions process, along with photos and content from the tour. Many return home and actively recommend the universities they visited to their students, and several have shared their experience publicly on platforms like LinkedIn and Trustpilot.
How is this different from events and outreach or digital recruitment?
A counselor tour is an in-person, on-campus experience for a curated group of counselors. Events and outreach reaches counselors at conferences and training events they already attend. Digital recruitment runs year-round campaigns to reach students and parents online. Many universities combine a tour with one or both of the other options for a fuller strategy.
