How to pick a school?

Hey! I'm having trouble deciding which schools I should apply. I really want to major in Philosophy and mathematics. How do I know which schools have the best program for that?

Hey! So I am having the same issue so that's why I decided to come on here. If you use the Ivy tool and give it some factors you would like in your perfect college, it can give you a run down on all of your options. The tool can also make a pros and cons list, answer specifics, help you improve your chances for the school, and help you make a plan!

Check out the information each school has for the programs...look for video clips, course lists, course descriptions...Then compare. Which program excites you the most? I looked at several schools for the same exact program, and one left me super excited. I knew it was the school. The others were interesting, but nothing excited me as much as the last one!

Hope this helps :) You got this!
