How do I begin the college search process

<p>I have an idea of my potential major. I want to narrow down my college list, where do i begin?</p>

<p>You start by asking your parents about the money. Will they help you pay for your education, and if so how much will they pay each year and under what terms? How limited is their budget? How much are you expected to pay for with your own income, savings, and student loans?</p>

<p>Once you know about the money, you will know whether or not you have to dig deep and far to find your safety schools.</p>
