Although it is not UCLA or USC, CSUN is a great University in Los Angeles. Many of the professors have taught or concurrently teach at these schools. It is a diverse campus, with more than just one racial ethnic background. Many people have families, are working full time and going to school full-time, and many are coming back to school after 40 years of deciding whether or not to go to college. You will find people from all walks of life at CSUN.

I do not know if there is a "right college" for anyone. I feel like the college experience is something the student makes for themselves.

Dont take money under consideration, look for the best wchool for the students interests, also look at the staff and the school/class size

Pick a college or university where you find the most helpful faculty and staff. Going to school is hard enough without the added pressure of unhelpful staff. CSUN is all of the above, at least in the history department, and I would recommend it to anyone. However, CSUN is a commuters university and has less school spirit than USC and UCLA.

It is essential to know what your talents and interests are and what your personality type is like.. For further guidance on discovering what your path in life may be, it would be a good idea to ask your friends and family about what they have observed of you. Also there are resources at high schools and colleges that can provide you with advisors that are suppose to help guide you to making a decision on a school that might work best for you based on your current academic progress. It is also a good idea to talk to as many people as possible who have attended the schools that you're considering, because you may then get a better perspective based on their subjective experiences. Also it is extremely helpful to visit any school that you're considering to attend because if it is a school that is going to make you change your lifestyle then you want to make sure that the school will suit your priorities and provide the environment that will help you accomplish your goals. Now with your own thoughts and other people?s considerations, you can better narrow down your choices on a school

Your college experience is what you make of it. If you can't or don't want to make friends, you won't. If you don't try, you won't succeed. My best advice is make sure you find what you are interested in and stick to it! Without passion, you will never enjoy what you're doing. Don't become a business major if you're drawn to fashion design. Don't pursue a career path you're not absolutely in love with. Once you graduate, it will be hard enough to find a job. But if you thoroughly enjoy what you do, you won't care how long it takes to make your dream come true.
