Finding the right school is a very hard decision. Although there are a lot of great schools out there, not every school is ggreat for every individual person. The first thing to look for in a school is the course offerings and academics. Why waste your time at a school that does not offer a program that you are interested in? After you have done that, location is the next thing. You have to decide how far away from home you want to live. Keep in mind how often you want to come home, travel expenses, etc. Next, find an appropriate campus size. Some people perfer a really big campus with thousands of students while others need a small, quiet atmosphere. Lastly, you should examine the school's extra curricular activities and campus life to ensure you will have some fun. Afterall, part of the college experience is socializing with others from all different walks of life and expanding your horizon.
