Visit colleges you are interested in and stay in the area for a few days to feel what it would be like to live there. Also take your time, even if your not sure, take a year off to decide. It's better to make the right choice and not rush into anything.

Considering the right college is strictly about what the student him or herself wants, not parents, family, friends or anyone else. A student who is motivated by business should attend a major business school like Berkeley who is extremely focused on business and every aspect of it.

Do not jump into anything. Make sure that you look carefully at all school campus. If something tells you no, than no its a four year decison that will help you as an individual create yourself. Good Luck and enjoy the experience.

IT'S A GOOD CHOICE FOR ADULTS TO GET AN EVENING EDUCATION, NOT A CHOICE FOR FULL DAYTIME STUDENTS AFTER SCHOOL. IT'S VERY EASY TO GET INTO ALTHOUGH ACCOUNTING MAJOR CAREER PLACEMENT IS DOESN'T EXIST.

I suppose that every student about to apply for college has an idea of what it is that they want from the institution. In all honesty sometimes we have to compromise these expectations. One of the most important things that you want to look for are good Financial Aid and Student Development departments. These two departments you will be having to deal with no matter how long you will be in college, so you should definitely make sure that they are comfortable people and assess that they have a grasp of what it is they're supposed to be helping you with. You should also try to get to know some of the students or converse with them when you go to visit. It's important to get more than one opinion when it comes to this because one person's bad experience could turn you away from the school that is just what you're looking for. Depending on your preferences you should inquire about their extra-curricular activities. If you have never been a part of such activities or they don't have the ones you're looking for find out if you could start one yourself.
