You’ve been getting some great advice here, especially from @aquapt. But as it’s been asked, it’s not really clear what it is you’re looking for in a college. Here are some questions that might help you think about your preferences:
- Do you prefer the anonymity of large classes or do you prefer smaller classes where the professor knows if you’re there or not?
- How do you feel about Greek life (fraternities & sororities)?
- How important is enthusiasm for intercollegiate sports?
- Do you have a sense of what size school you might like?
- Are there particular activities or interests that you would like to pursue while in college?
- Do you prefer rural, suburban, or urban environments?
- What kind of climate do you want (or want to avoid)?
- Are there particular regions that you prefer (or prefer to avoid)?
- Do you like being among the best students and having special opportunities presented to you, or do you prefer to have to constantly hustle to try and keep up with your peers?
