“Decision Making is a Process, not an Event” Visit college campuses - each one has a different
personality and different characteristics Keep searching and applying for scholarships –
lack of finances is a huge reason why students decide not to attend their preferred college
Apply in summer/fall of senior year, get accepted, do financial aid, THEN decide where to attend.
