Limited knowledge of myself...

With so many schools out there, I am having trouble narrowing them to a managable group that I can make my list from. I don’t really care about location-although places like Manhattan would probably be a little much for me- and I don’t know how I feel about size and I don’t have the slightest clue what I might want to major in. No schools are automatically eliminated for academic reasons and, if I find the right college, I refuse to let money be an issue. I’m Catholic, but there are Catholics everywhere (in U.S.) and i can’t imagine letting denomination factor into my decision.

This is what I do know: I probably should go liberal arts because of my extreme cluelessness, but I would prefer to go somewhere with strong science programs, just because, when I do choose a career, I feel like I would have to be doing something tangible. I want I good education or else I’d get bored and I don’t want to go to a school where the only thing to do is drink for the same reason. I guess that means I’d prefer frats were a hang out spot rather than the dominate part of the social scene. I’m pretty excited about studying abroad.

I really don’t feel like my list of choices has really shrunk from that knowledge, but maybe if anyone could think of a school that my description reminds them of or if they can think of other ways to shrink that list, that would be great.
