"Have you visited the school?" is a common question asked by those seeking college/university counselling and placement support. Being able to answer this question positively helps to assure a student and/or parent as well as to instill confidence in the advice provided.
It is not possible to see every school in the world but as an advisor, it is important to have a high degree of familiarity with colleges and universities. What is also important, is having some familiarity with the country of interest, its education system, people, culture and customs to ensure advising is comprehensive and holistic.

Every year, I embark on my annual pilgrimage across different countries to visit and assess various institutions. Canada is one of the leading study destinations of choice among my students, therefore it is one of the countries high on our travel agenda. Here is a brief review of two of different institutions visited earlier this year during a trip across Canada.
