1. You do not have to choose a name- brand college
It is a prejudice that big famous colleges will give you better education than others. Think rationally and ask for advice. Go online and spend some time searching for the college that will satisfy all your demands. Consider all the factors including geographical location, financial issue, majors and programs presented etc.
2. Listen to others but make a decision by yourself
It is unavoidable to listen to your friends' and parents' advice, but it is not smart to choose college just because your friend decided to go there. Think what you want to do and who you want to be and make a thought- out decision.
3. Always apply to more than one college
There is a great amount of colleges that offer their programs to those who are going to become freshmen. It is hard to decide which one is better. Choose several colleges that attract you most of all and fill in their application forms. By the time they accept you, you will know for sure where you want to study.
4. Do not believe prejudices and creepy stories
You are definitely going to hear and read many stories about how hard it is to get an admission to a certain college. Do not listen to these stories. Pretend you do not hear them and do not spend hours reading those stories in different blogs and forums. Relax and wait for result.
