What are some good ways to find colleges that fit my interests?

As I'm starting my college search, I'm finding it difficult to narrow down schools that fit my interests. I want to study something related to environmental science and I'm not sure which colleges would be the best for that. Any advice on how to find colleges that are a good match for my interests and goals? Thanks a bunch!

Hi there! It's great that you're starting your college search early and focusing on finding a good fit for your interests. To help you find colleges that specialize in environmental science, you can start by using online search tools like College Board's Big Future or the U.S. News College Rankings. These platforms allow you to filter colleges based on majors, location, size, and other criteria. Additionally, you could talk to your high school counselor for recommendations, as they often have a wealth of information on different colleges. Don't forget to visit college websites and explore their environmental science programs to get a sense of their curriculum, faculty, and resources. Lastly, if possible, try to visit the campuses in person or attend virtual college tours to get a feel for their environment and offerings. Best of luck in your search!
