<p>Many, many questions:</p>
<p>What state do you live in?
How much money can your parents contribute to your college education? Will you need merit aid?
What is your intended major?
Do you want to go to a tiny school (<1,500 students), a small school (between 1,500 and 3,000 students), a medium-sized school (3,000 - 7,000 students), a large school (7,000 - 20,000 students), or a huge school (>20,000 students)?
Do you want a research university, a liberal arts college, or a technical college?
What political climate would you prefer - liberal, conservative, moderate, polarized, or apathetic?
Do you mind religious/Catholic schools?
Do you mind single-sex schools?
Are you down with diversity?
Are you a hard partier? An art nerd? An intellectual? An all-American kid? Would you like to be around people like yourself?
What kind of weather do you like?
Do you have any other preferences?</p>
<p>You forgot to ask…</p>
<p>Do you prefer an urban, suburban, or rural environment?
Do you have any geographic preferences?
Do you want an academically rigorous school, or do you prefer to be a big fish in a small pond?
Do you want an open curriculum or a CORE?</p>
<p>Thanks for the replys, I was being vague on purpose so I could get a lot of different options. I’m looking for a college that would be more on the “reach side” and would challenge me academically, but also I want to be fairly confident I would be accepted. Money isn’t issue, and I’m looking for a school of 2,500 + students. I haven’t decided my intended major. The only thing attribute I would be looking for is a liberal minded college. Anywhere from Colorado eastward is preferable. I wouldn’t describe myself as a “sports jock” but I plan on playing intramurals. </p>
<p>I’m not nessecarily looking for a list of schools that fit a tight criteria, just people’s favorite schools that would fit me academiclly. </p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>There are literally hundreds of fine colleges which meet your vague criteria, especially if the 3.66 is unweighted.</p>
