How do I know that I am on the right track?
Answered

Hi, I am a junior and I am having a hard time looking for colleges. When I think I found a great one, I look at the requirements and think that I haven't met them. How can I really know if I am making the right choice in choosing the right college or even major/ minors? How do I get over the fear that a college won't want me on their campus?

As long as you have the minimum requirements, take your shot! Most people change their majors and minors as they go through college and find out what they do and don't like, start out with something you can see yourself doing in the future and go on from there :) And about being worried about them not wanting you on campus, trust me, no one will be thinking that, be confident!
