Shaw University Top Questions

Do not always go by what you see on brochures. Looks can be deceiving.

I believe thats it a good idea to survey not only the professors but ask the students because the have been though the school's process and know whats going on personally.

I would tell them to read on each college they are interested in and also visit the campus. Talk to some of the students that already attend the college and ask many questions. Make sure to know all the information you would like to know before you know that is the college for you. and GOOD LUCK!

To check out the best colleges/universities in the state you and make a choice as to whether this is the right college/university for you to attend, then apply to more than just a few colleges/universities to make sure that you are sure ithe college you choose is the best school for you and also make sure the school you pick will be the one(s) that you pick and not the one(s) your parents would like for you to attend because that was where your parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents went and therefore desire you to follow in their footsteps. Make sure the school you choose will be your choice dond't second guest at going to a school you prefer not to attend just to please your parents. Parents should stand by their children in whatsoever decisions they make concerning the school(s) they plan to attend. School should be a choice of the child and not the parents. Edcuation is for the child to receive and use, for them to succeed after graudation in order to find the perfect job in their field of study.

Chose a school based on academics not on big time sports or the size of the university.

Looking for a college is a long but a simple process. Finding a the right college is just a matter of narrowing down your choices. An individual should first decide where they are and are not willing to relocate to. The next step is finding out if the colleges in the states that you have chosen offer a program for your major. If it does than you should compare it with others. You should try to find out as much as you can about job placement after graduation. Making the most out of the college experience is a simple as finding a place that you are comfortable with, keeping up you GPA, and having fun while you are doing it.

Sometimes your first choice is not the best. Research the college for yourself and visit if possible because a college that's not even on your list could be the perfect one for you.
