Now that the majority of the Seniors have received their acceptance letters, there are three questions that they have to ask themselves before making a decision as to which school to attend: 1) Will this school offer me the best education possible in what I intend to study; 2) Will I be able to pay for this college? and 3) Will I be happy here? For question 1, rankings are important but there are so many, that what is best is for the student to check out each school's curriculum and determine which one is the strongest in what they intend to study. For question 2, compare all financial aid awards and place in the short list only those you and your parents can afford. And for question 3, visit the school and ask yourself "Can I see myself part of this community?" and "Will I be happy here? A college or university that fulfills all three questions is the college that you should attend!
