Texas offers universities with a wide range of specializations and diverse student populations. Each stop is thoughtfully designed to enhance your understanding of the opportunities that await your students in Florida and Texas.

Personalized interaction with university admissions directors ensures that you leave with a wealth of knowledge and are ready to guide your students with the most up-to-date information you will not get from any website. The tour is geared towards new and seasoned counselors eager to learn more about their students’ prospects in the U.S.
