Size
Would normally prefer something smaller, but I also like how at large colleges they are easier to transfer into and have dedicated transfer orientations and support, so I don’t really mind too much in this department as I am split
Environment
City or suburban is better, rural is okay but not my favorite, I prefer to be in places where I can go out and do lots of activities by walking and not too much by car, though I would bring one
Weather
Hate the cold and snow, so would love something warmer or at least less intense than New England weather in the winter
Location
Looking at PNW, Southeast, Southwest, Midwest (I know the winters are bad there but I like a lot of the environment there) and anywhere really, including New England since there are so many good schools here despite the weather and I am okay with not going far
Sports scene
Doesn’t matter to me, though school spirit would be nice as people in my school seem to hate anything related to it
LGBTQ+
Something LGBTQ+ friendly would be essential to me imo.
Hope this covers a lot!
