Which is Right for Me? |
The run down:
Curriculum
Look for the schools that offer the right courses and have the right facilities for the kinds of studies you want to undertake. If you’re not sure yet, look for a school with a broad-based liberal arts program. If you want science, make sure they have up-to-date labs, computers and other facilities.
Location
Decide where you want to go to college. If you need to live at home or just want to be close to home, or if you want to live in a big city with all its other attractions, limit your scope to that area.
Size
If you think you might be overwhelmed at a large university, look for a school with a smaller number of students. But remember, even at a larger school, after your first couple of years, classroom size gets smaller and you get to know the students in your major area of study.
