Decided where to go to school is a very important, and possibly, hard decision. There are many factors that are taken into consideration, and the importance of each of them depends on yourself.
Step 1: determine what you might like to study or major in at college
Step 2: develop a list of criteria you want to use to evaulate and weed out colleges
- degrees offered
- majors/minors
- location (rural or urban setting)/distrance from home
- size of the student population
- public vs. private
- costs (tuition, room and board, etc)
- financial assistance packages
- campus resources
- graduation rate/time
- placement success/internship and co-op programs
- accreditation
- class size
- faculty contact/classes taught by full-time doctorally qualified faculty
- quality/reputation/ranking
- degree of pressure to excel
- safety
- student body
- social life
- religious affiliation/independent
- housing options
- realistic entry expectations
Step 3: compile a list of possible colleges and univeristies
Step 4: research each of the schools you are interested in
Step 5: visit the colleges on your list
