Make sure that you research the college and it has what you want to major in or if you are undecided, make sure it has a couple of options that you are interested in and may want pursue a career in. Also make sure that you visit the campus and talk to some of the professors and students. When you go on a visit make sure you get to know the campus and if you can really see yourself happy attending the school. If your going to live on campus talk to some of the students live on campus and see what they think about the campus. Ask them questions like is it what they expected? Do they like it? What types of things is there to do on campus? The location is a big thing so make sure it?s in the area that you wish to be located in.

To the students: Always make sure that you are looking for something that best fits you. make sure you dont go somewhere in the country when you know you hate the country. Also, make sure that your money is right because the worst thing to do is be broke in college. Learn how to manage your time because that's the biggest thing you have to learn when you live on campus because there isn't going to be anyone around to tell what to do and what not to do. Parents: Make sure that you are financially stable enough so that your child can go to school, pay for her books and can ask you for some spending money on the side. College is expensive, but your child wants to have fun and grow. she can't do that if she has know one to lean on. Always encourage your child, but don't tell them what to do because they need to grow and find out who they really are and they need to make SOME mistakes.

I WOULD SAY THAT YOU MUST ALWAYS CHECK THE SCHOOL OUT IN PERSON FIRST BEFORE YOU ATTEND. THE STUDENT AND THE PARENT MUST KNOW THEIR OWN COMFOTABILITY WHEN IT COMES TO THE DISTANCE OF THE SCHOOL. LAST BUT DT LEAST DON'T BE AFRAID TO TRY SOMETHING NEW.

Mostly I would tell a student to look for a school that will provide for their needs. Many make the mistake of choosing a school just because it is a party school or because a friend goes there but don't because then, when it comes time to think about what you want to do concerning your major and your career, you have no clue and your fairly stuck. Also, the college experience is what you make of it. You can go all out, try for the best grades, join the activities, and make new friends, or you can just not do anything. I say go for it. Do what you can without overloading yourself because, though you may spend a lot of your time with friends or in extra-curricular activities, there's always homework and that is what is important.

There are laws mandating children to go to high school until a certain age. In today's world, it goes without saying how important a college education is. The high school degree of yesteryear is the bachelor's degree of today. As with everything, what you give is what you get. In determining your ideal school, you have to know what you want. Important steps to that is having an idea of what the school has to offer. The only way you can grasp how well you fit into a university is by visiting the school, researching the school and talking to people who attend or attended the school. Many times, students are not sure about what they want to do before going to college. Thus, it becomes imperative to go to a school that has a wide range of career paths, and/or majors. You don't want to go to a school and waste time not pursuing your intended major. College is about pursuing your dreams. College isn't about grades. Grades just indicate how well you 'passed' a class. Have a passion for what you do and stick with it. College is there to help guide you.
