Hye - it really is OK if you don’t fall “in love” with one particular college. I think that students make the mistake of thinking the is “one perfect college” out there and secret is finding it. In actuality, there are lots of great schools out there. However, it is possible that there is no school that offers everything that you want. You might have to make a compromise or 2. The problem with falling in love is that if you get rejected or waitlisted or the FA doesn’t work out, then it is very difficult to move on. You are better off creating a list of colleges that will meet many of your needs and going from there. Don’t worry about falling in love.
