I would look more closely at the student population, it’s diversity, and where most of the students came from (distance-wise from the school). I think I focused on the strength of the school in the field I’m interested in, cost and merit awards, and activities that were on and off campus that I might enjoy well, but forgot that if there’s not much diversity in the population base of students, and I don’t fit into that base well, it makes it difficult to fit in (I’ve never had this issue before, but I;ve been around people that were more like me). I chose the school for the right reasons, I just should have thought about the diversity of the student population more.
