3D Virtual Campus Tours Blog

Understanding what prospective students find informative, fun and most convenient to access when searching online for colleges and universities is important. The great news is that our staff at Designing Digitally, Inc. has experience in developing virtual campus tours that include all the features that prospective students are looking for. We have been able to combine the features that students want with the features that admissions reps and recruiting coordinators need to create the perfect online experience to get your college noticed.

One of the most important aspects of college life are the cultural and social aspects of the campus. Our uniquely designed 3D Virtual Campus Tours build in communication and socialization through a variety of different features. First, all of the students on a tour of the virtual campus can communicate directly with each other with the chat that is built into the program. In addition they can compete at the trivia and skill types of games, really adding to the enjoyment of the tour and the experience while in the 3D virtual campus.

Our program also allows for communication between the admissions reps, tour guides and staff of the college or university and the prospective student. This gives the admissions reps the power to communicate specific information to different students on the tour based on their preferences and questions. As each student on the 3D virtual campus tour can fill out a profile, information can also be obtained to help the admissions rep set up tours or make suggestions that are unique to the interests of the prospective students. In turn these questions can be posed at any time on the tour. As the communication is in real time it is exactly like a real conversation, allowing a very natural flow of information.

Students that prefer to take the tour on their own can customize the experience with their virtual guide that operates through an artificial intelligence system based on the student’s interests. The student has the comfort level of choosing the communication and interaction that is best suited for their needs. Students can take the tour as often as they want and play games over and over to gain more information, points and to become familiar with the campus. It is also possible to complete the college application within the 3D world, with the option to ask questions and obtain clarification on application questions from an admissions rep as it is completed.

3D Virtual Campus Tours provides a highly immersive, completely realistic and very detailed campus tour experience.
