TTS Campus Visits are exclusive to TTS members.

*Members must sign-up by 4pm of the date specified and must cancel their participation as soon as they are aware of conflict in scheduling.

Failure to provide advance notice could result in loss of campus visits privileges for the remainder of the academic year.

Once a member has confirmed their attendance with their TTS advisor, they will be given a permission slip which they must physically turn-in to board the bus. Electronic/digital copies will not be accepted.


Campus Visits are more fun with a friend! 

Want to tour a campus with a friend that’s not a TTS member?

Encourage them to visit our website acctalentsearch.com to apply online or request a paper application from your school.

(the sooner they apply, the faster we can process their app-don't delay!)

More Tips For A Successful Senior Year


Seniors, this year is going to be your busiest year of school. There are so many things to tackle!  I’ve put together a list of important dates and task deadlines that you will want to mark on your calendar. You should have completed your college search and planning during your junior year. If you haven’t started, this task should be completed immediately.


College Application Deadlines: While there are some common college application due dates, not every school ascribes to these. Always double check with the colleges on your list ahead of time.

  • Early Action and Early Decision: Usually in November, either November 1st or November 15 is the deadline to submit your application for this deadline.
  • Early Decision II: Usually January 1 is the deadline, but remember, not all schools offer this application option.
  • Regular Decision: Usually January 1, however, some schools have rolling admissions.

Regardless, these dates don’t mean you should wait until the last minute to collect your college application materials. Essays and letters of recommendation take time. Planning accordingly will help ensure your applications are submitted well ahead of time, helping you avoid any last-minute computer or connection problems.

Even More important dates and deadlines will be posted in the next edition of ACCESS.
