Starting the process of applying to college is the hardest part. Advice will come from parents, siblings, relatives, friends, school guidance counselors, even strangers. Many people will have valuable advice to impart about where to apply, how to apply, when to apply and everyone will have their reasons. However, there’s only one person going to college, and that’s you.

The decision you make about your college destination might be the most important decision of your life to date. This is not a time for you to decide where your best friend is going, where the most parties are or where that attractive football player you’ve had your eye on since grade ten is going.

Your college decision will influence the rest of your life. It will influence the career path you take. It will have an influence over the friendships that you make, many of whom will last a lifetime. It might even influence the area of the country that you will live and work in after graduation.

Unfortunately choosing a college to suit you is not a scientific process. However there are certain steps you can take that will make the selection process less of a hit-and-miss situation. There are many colleges that make a suitable match for every student who is considering applying.
