College Hunt?


Asked by Dat man Howie 16!!
I'm a rising junior and I'm trying to narrow down my college choices. I don't really know if I should stay in-state or go out of state. Can someone help me out on how to narrow it down so it can be easier to choose?

You might want to try the collegeboard (the makers of the SAT) college matchmaker. It'll take some basic criteria to help you make a short list of colleges. It isn't perfect by any means, but it will get you started. collegesearch.collegeboard.com/search/adv_typeofschool.jsp Here are somethings to consider when debating instate vs. out of state: -living in dorms or at home -cost -vicinity to/from parents - where your friends will be going - get lost in the shuffle or getting a one on one experience with professors (that's more of a factor in public vs. private schools) I hope that starts you thinking. Best of luck!
