Choosing a College is a lot like Choosing a Favorite Firework

How it makes me feel matters, but so do other things:

Questions to consider before applying to college

Do I need to be where there’s always a lot going on?

Would I be more comfortable at a smaller school where I know I can shine?

Will I be inspired to learn? To excel? To shoot for the stars?

Will I find a major that is right for me?

Can I afford to go here or is the financial commitment out of reach?

Is the student population diverse enough?

What’s the social life like? Will I fit in?

Will I be happy here?
