First off think about yourself, what you like, what you dislike, and what will make you happy throughout your life! College is a way to prepare you for a fulfilling future of your OWN choosing. Follow your talents and passions and you will be rewarded with a satisfying and happy future!

Pick the right college that best suits you. Do not let any one make that decision for you because in the end you have to deal with it. Also do not let anyone force you into going to college if you go go for your self and noone else

Finding the best college and having thehe best college experiece possible is not as difficult as one would think. No matter what college you choose to attend, making the best out of your situation is what counts the most. Putting yourself out there and being active in the community and provided activities on campus and off will make being there a much more pleasant experience.

If I where to give parents and students advice for finding the right college I would suggest doing a general search on the internet first. With this general search you answer a few question about yourself and what you think you are looking for in a college. Once you have answered all the questions the search gives you a list of results of colleges that meet your requirements based on the questions you answered. Then i would suggest visiting the colleges and meeting with someone in admissions. They are there to answer any questions you might have and provide you with as much information as they can. I also encourage you to take a tour of the campus, sit in on a class, and even try the campus food. In order to make the most of the college experience I suggest keeping on top of your studies as well as participating in some school functions and maybe even join a club. This is a great way to make friends and it can also provide with a support system. I also recomend for the student to set some time aside for themselves. Most of all i recomend to study hard.

Go where you want to go. Don't go places because of friends, and make sure you have an extended visit at the school before you choose to commit there.

Whitney

I would suggest that you fully research and visit the college or university that you would like to attend to make sure that you find a school that is the right fit. Try to get involved in activities because its a way to meet people that like to do similar things.

Natalie

Choose the college that you feel a connection to, even if it does cost a lot of money it can be worth it, sometimes chosing a college because it is cheap and you cannot afford any other college is not the best thing to do.

Jessica

I think parents and students really need to do a thorough search of school before choosing the right one. They should look for things like which majors have the most funding, how accessable teachers and advisors are, and how advanced the technology on campus is. My only advice for making the most of a college experience is to get involved. Join a club. It doesn't matter what kind of club it is, every club works. It is the easiest way to make life long friends that share the same interests and ideas. Friends are what make college.

if you want to go somewhere far away, do it your freshman year. you can always transfer closer to home next year. definitely party hearty, but keep up with your school work too. make sure you make friends with people you like and don't get sucked into attaching yourself to people just because you're scared you won't make any other friends. and parents, your babies are growing up, if you want to keep them save, you should have locked them in the basement instead of pushed them toward higher education.
