The first thing students should know when selecting a college is the school's reputation for the major that they want to studey. They need to know if the university offers the courses they need for their field plus other programs they offer to help them out. Next they need to know the type of environment they are comfortable with, i.e. small campus. Finally they need to know where they are going to live while attending school because then they have to find out about the school's financial aid.

I would tell students to know what they are looking for. There are many different types of Schools like party and greek schools. Some schools have a good share of everything and some are way out there. Also make sure that you know if you want to go to A big school or a small school. Some students do better when they are are small high school like classes. Others find out they do better in large lecture halls. I think that one should visit there top choices and spend all day there, so they can get a feel of how it is during the day and at night!
