Finding+the+Right+Fit


 * Finding the Right Fit **

 You want your college experience to be the best!!! In high school, you didn’t get to choose which high school you went to, but college is different. Think about it as if you are shopping for the perfect prom dress or tuxedo. You want everything to be right. You choose the color, style, length and most of all how much you want to pay for it. Same concept can be applied when ‘shopping’ for a college. 

Does it have my major? Do it have on campus housing? How much does it cost per year (tuition)? Is there an active student life? How many students attend annually? Do I want a small college or a large university? Does the college have the sports team that I want to pursue? Do I want to stay close to home or leave the state? After creating this list, it will help you to determine a list of potential colleges.
 * Questions to ask yourself when shopping: **

After you have created your list, it is very important to schedule a campus visits. Colleges love when prospective students come to their campus. Be sure to go to the open houses and any pre-visits you can to make sure that the college is the right choice for you.
