show yourself friendly, at school to make the most of it; and to find the right college pray anout it. see where God leads you you'll never be wrong.

I would advise you to get on campus of the universities of choice as much as is possible. The more you are on campus the easier it is to get an idea of average campus life. Also, meet as many professors as you can, they will be your mentors and instructors and you need to be able to get along with them.

I strongly believe that you create your college experience. It is up to you to make the most of your college experience, this includes all relationships with professors, friends, community, and church. To find the right college you should do research and find out who offers the most for your profession, all these risks will definately pay off and at the end your satisfaction will be worth the money invested for your education.

It is important to find a college that offers plenty of opportunities that have something to do with things the student is interested in or passionate about. When that college is found, the student will be more likely to enjoy their time there, not only in the classroom learning, but also being involved in activities that could help them build relationships with fellow students.

Finding the right college can be stressful, but if parents and students would access every resource available to them it could alleviate much of this stress. Visiting schools online, talking with the high school guidance counselor or if at all possible visit the campus in person and talk with some of the students attending the college. One of the most important things to do is to start early and not wait until the last minute. Selecting a major that is right for you is one way that you can make the most out of the college experience. Be responsible and attend every class, unless of course you are really sick. Participate in all of your classes, don't just sit and be passive. Get involved with extra-curricular activities and most of all have fun and enjoy your college experience.

The most effective piece of information I can give concerning finding the right college and making the most of the college experience is to (at least) have a vague idea of the path you want to take when it comes to choosing a career, and then go VISIT the campuses of the schools in which you are interested. You don't have to know EXACTLY what you want to be for the rest of your life; in fact, most of the whole college experience is discovering your true personal identity. By actually visiting the campuses, you get a feel for the attitudes and personalities of the students and teachers on campus, and you will be able to decide if the schools are too big, too small, or just right according to your preference. To get the most of the college experience, stay on top of your school work, but balance it with your social life, too. Do your best, but don't beat yourself up too much if school is harder than it was in high school. If you are really putting forth significant effort and still having a difficult time, chances are you're not the only one.

Picing a college that is right for you does not necessarily mean that it doesn't have to be fun. Find a college that you feel more comfortable in, you get along with the professors/coaches and your peers. When you get the gut feeling that this is where you need to be, it's uasually the right place. Parents don't force your student into a college or university that you want them to go to just because you went there or it's family tradition. Your college experience is one of the best of your life, enjoy it, but go to class and get it over with.

When looking for a college, don't look for the one where you can spend the least amount of money or get the best looking degree, really look into the relationships that are fostered there. Your college experience won't be how interesting your classes were or how pretty the campus was. Your memories will be the relationships you made and how you spent your extra time.

Parents: Let your kids go where they want to go, don't hole on too tightly to them when they head off to school. Students: Go to a school that makes you happy, and that you do well at. Don't go somehwere just becuase your friends or significant other are going there, make your own choice.

Find a school with not only good academics and great teachers who engage the students and immerse them in what they are learning, but find a school that they can feel comfortable in, one that has a great programs/ programs for their passions/ interests, and has plenty of opportunties to learn, socialize, and become an active part of the world they live in.
