Hi! For me, the most important factors in choosing a college are the quality of the academics and the overall cost of attendance. I want to make sure that I'm getting a good education and that I'm not spending more money than I need to. I also think it's important to consider the location of the school and the opportunities that it offers outside of the classroom. After doing your research, you should have a good idea of which college is right for you. Good luck :)))

hello! here are some things i considered...

-location: do i want to live far or close from home? will i be okay a 4 hour flight away from my parents, or do i need them only a 2 hour drive away? cold weather or hot weather? live by family?

-studies: MAKE SURE THEY HAVE YOUR MAJOR!

-students: how big do you want to go? do you want the teacher to know you by name, or do you want to sit in an auditorium for class?

-rep: does name matter to you? do you want to tell people you go to Harvard, or are you okay telling people a school they don't know?

-affordability: is the tuition affordable? remember - you still have room/board & school supplies & travel on top of that!

good luck!
