Overwhelmed, where to start?

One thing I had my children do that really helped was to create a spreadsheet that listed their criteria for a school so location, cost, majors/topics they are interested, extracurricular activities they want, cost to come home on breaks, placement scores, etc.

I had them put things in order of importance to them.

Then they used that excel spreadsheet as they looked at schools to determine if the school even made their criteria. If it did, it went on the list to tour or visit. We grouped them so we could do 4-5 tours in one visit.

They quickly got a feel for geography, majors/topics, and narrowed in to do the comparison. From there it was easy to see the top 3-7 to apply to.
