The 3 most important factors that stood out to me from the article would be, location, cost, and admission rate. These are all three very important because I want to be close to Camarillo, and that will be a very big deciding factor for me when I try to choose a long one. I don't want to be in huge debt after I get out of college so I want to go somewhere I know I'll be able to pay off my tuition. Admission rates are important because If I truly don't think I'll get accepted into a school with a low admission rates, I will know to save those $70.  (111 words)

3 factors from the article that stood out to me the most were, Graduation Rate, Jobs Right out of school, Course availability. These stood out to me because it showed me what I need to do and look for before I apply or look into college I want to go to and see if it is even worth looking into because it might not have what I want and what I need depending on what I am trying to get into. (81)

I believe the factors that most students overlook when looking for a college is curriculum. I think this because many college students drop out of the college they applied to after realizing that the teaching style that they practice won't work out for them or they don't have the classes that interest them. Curriculum is a very important part of choosing a college that may get overlooked by students who choose to go to a school because they have heard it is good. (83)

# data[].attributes.body
A factor that I think most students overlook when looking for a college is the overall school size. The school size can impact the way students learn. A lot of schools have over 10,000 students, so getting that 1 on 1 time with the professor is going to be difficult since they have almost 300 students per class. A school with a smaller student body allows you to have a better relationship with your professor when you need assistance. (79 words)

One factor that made me rethink what I am looking for in college is transportation. I say this because I didn't really think about the fact that some colleges don't want cars or have enough parking. And If I have to use public transportation it can get expensive. I feel like whatever college I want to go to I am really going to consider if they allow cars. This was something that I didn't think about before. (77)

3 factors from the article that stood out to me the most are cost, quality of professor, and course availability. Cost is obviously important to me because I don't want to be in debt by spending all my money on tuition. The quality of professors is important to me too because I want to get the best education in college. After all, I want to have a successful career. And course availability is important to me too because I want to take as many courses related to my major so I can understand it more and have a successful career. (100)

A few factors made me rethink my future plans, specifically location, sports participation, and grad rates. Location wise I have accepted the fact I’ll be moving out of state either senior year or after high school. My worry with that is pricing since I would need to earn residence to get somewhat of a discount. Secondly, sports participation is a big factor. I love wrestling dearly, though many schools I have found that offer the major I need don’t have female wrestling. It sucks knowing I may not be able to play the sport in college and I’m trying to find a alt for it. Lastly grad rates, grade rates shop how many people finished the program which reflect the struggle of study and how well you will succeed. (129)

# data[].attributes.body
The factor I think will be most important when it's my time to make my final decision is, how good the campus is, the environment, and if im qualified for financial aid, especially because my parent are older than most, and I was discussing with my dad how he was going to retire as soon as I graduate high school and I don't want them to spend so much on me. My least decision for college is, party life because I don't think I would really prioritize partying and it's not super important, and it's not really a lifetime, only a little bit of my life. (106)

# data[].attributes.body
The factor I think is most overlooked is the student-faculty ratio, because students often just want to get into the class they want or the class they need to take without considering the number of students in each class. You need to determine how you learn best and whether you want your professor to know you. Another is how big the campus is. You can get lost easily if it's big, and you won't know everyone, but if you're in a smaller school, it's easier to get to class.(89 words)

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like when kids are applying for colleges they look at what is most important to them but sometimes they overlook the things that could really make a difference on the application are the graduation rate because they represent how the program is because if the graduation rate is high that means you are more likely to graduate and the teachers are better. This can contribute to your life in college and how fast you get your degree.(79)

# data[].attributes.body
When making my final decision, I think the most important factor will be what college has the better program that I’m interested in. I want to become a nurse, and the colleges I apply to will obviously have nursing programs, but the one I go with, depending on where I get in if there’s multiple, I’ll go to the one that has the best program out of the few. I think the least important factor will be the size of classes. I don’t mind the size, as long as the teachers are good, and I learn. (96)

# data[].attributes.body
As I get closer to senior years I believe that the factors that will guide me for my college list would be cost, course quality,admission rate, and lastly the courses that the school provides. I will further research this by looking up more schools with the majors I currently plan of taking then also viewing the quality of the course along with the cost and how much student aid is accepted at the school so that I am not in debt after college and also the admission rate because it may be a good school but it is highly possible I may not get accepted into the school. (109)

# data[].attributes.body
I believe the factor that will be most important to me when making my final decision is going to be location. I feel like when deciding a school, location is one of the most important aspects and it will probably be my deciding factor when choosing a college to go to. The location will affect how I will be able to live my life for about 4 years and will dictate what I will and won't be able to do, which is why I think it will be my deciding factor when choosing a college. My least important will be Greek life because I haven’t looked too much into it and I don’t really care about it. (117)

# data[].attributes.body
I believe the most important factor when it comes to making my final college decision will be financial aid and cost, because it's crucial to know if I will have enough money to cover college expenses. The least important factor during my college decision, I think, will be accreditation because I won't be concerned about graduate school; my focus will be on undergraduate education first, and later on in school, or if I want to go to a graduate school and still need to complete undergraduate studies, then I will worry about accredited institutions. (94)

# data[].attributes.body
The three factors from the article that stood out to me the most and are important to me are location, admission rate, and study abroad. Location is important to me because I don’t want to go too far from home. I still want to be able to live at home and commute. The admission rate stood out to me because it’s important to see the percentage of people who can get into the school. If it's a low percentage, then you have to be very competitive to get in. Studying abroad is a personal preference. I want to be able to travel and do school, so studying abroad is perfect.

# data[].attributes.body
The three factors from the article that stood out to me the most was The FASFA, Admission Rate, and School size. School size stood out to me because I did not know that a student can feel underwhelmed at a small size school. And that a student that is attending a larger big school can be feeling overwhelmed if they are around many students. Learning about the school sizes was something that stood out to be the most because I did not know how important it was. (87 words)

# data[].attributes.body
A factor that I think will be most important to me when it´s time to make my final college decision is researching if the school I want to attend has good resources and professors that teach well in the major that I plan on doing. A factor that will be least important to me when it's time to make my final decision is the extracurricular that the school offers, as I don´t plan on joining any sports during my college career. (81)

# data[].attributes.body
The first factor that stood out to me was looking for job placement programs. I had no idea that this was an option to help have a smooth transition. Another factor I like was the fact the graduating from college was more important than getting accepted. A lot of people get so excited with getting admitted into a great college but don't realize that it will be a challenge. Another Factor was spirituality. I didn't realize this before but I would actually want to be admitted into a religious school. (90)

# data[].attributes.body
I think something that is overlooked is the size of campuses. I think that some students don't really think about how big or small some schools are. I feel like this should be important because at some schools it's so big that it can be around a 15 to 20 minute walk just from one class to another. So I think if someone doesn't want that they should look into the size of the campus. (75)

# data[].attributes.body
The factor that I think students overlook the most when applying to college is Graduation rates. I feel like people are so focused on the fact of whether they can get it, considering the acceptance rate. But they don't think about the actual if you could finish college, and if the work is gonna be hard. Or if the partying is too big, kids always go out and never finish their school work or drop out. (77 words)

# data[].attributes.body
I would say that the 3 factors that stuck out to me the most were accreditation, study abroad opportunities, and the cost. In the article, it mentions that students who attend non accredited schools are not eligible for financial aid. I found that interesting because financial aid is a huge part of the application process and not having that could really affect your career. I found studying abroad important because it is something that I wanted to do and only some schools offer that opportunity. Cost is obviously a huge factor in college and probably the number 1 factor to a lot of people.

# data[].attributes.body
When it comes down to a specific college, the thing that makes them unique is their departments and majors. If they have a bad reputation and don't have strong programs, the school won't be beneficial. Also, the freshman retention rate is affected because if multiple people drop out of the school and its programs, it has a really bad representation of the whole school. Without positive data, the school could lead you into a false career.

# data[].attributes.body
As I'm heading toward senior year I would say that the most important factor or the one I'm more willing to research would be location. I do think that I am willing to drive to school and live away from home, but there is also a limit to where I'm willing to go with that. If I were to live on campus I would want to live 6 hours away from home. I would like to be able to come home for holidays or weekends. (85 words)

# data[].attributes.body
One factor that made me rethink is transportation, I didn't think this would be super important but I realize that I would need to save for my license and maybe pay for my car. I want to be as independent so I don't live off my parents, like they want me too, because they ask where I would get the money for everything, and I never really thought about this as a key thing for my college life. (78)

# data[].attributes.body
3 factors that stood out to me from the article were cost , location , and freshmen retention rate. These factors are the most important ones to me personally. Cost is really important when looking into college because you need to know how youre going to afford it and I dont want to get student loans and end up in debt. Location is also very important to me because I dont want to be too far from home, and I want to be in a nice safe area. Freshmen retention rate is really important because the transfer from highschool to college can be difficult (102)

# data[].attributes.body
The freshman retention rate is a factor that I learned about during the 33 factors research. This is a factor that I will for now on look for in colleges because it can determine how I do in college. If freshmen who are attending don't end up going back their sophomore year, there must be something that leads them not to go back. This will help me stay fully committed to a college once I get accepted. (77 words)

# data[].attributes.body
The 3 factors that stood out to me the most was Academic life, Extra Curricular activities, and the cost. These stood out to me because these factors are very important for choosing a college. These factors will guide you to choose the right school and what fits best for you. I would like to go to a school closer to home but a school that suits what I need and is not too expensive. Also to look for all the courses I need for my major. (86)

# data[].attributes.body
What is driving my college list the most right now is finances and education. I plan to be in a career that is outside a lot and consists of animals and nature. The majors can range from many things but Environmental science and animal science are a well chosen education path since there are more careers for it. Finance wise I have been looking into scholarships and how I can cut money off tuition ect my goal is to not have student debt which would be scary to have. I have already been researching and may even apply to a few scholarships right now. (104)

# data[].attributes.body
I think the factors students overlook the most when choosing a college is safety statistics, course availability, location, and on campus living. I think safety statistics should be one the best more important things when looking into colleges because that determines your safety and you should check out the amount of security or police there are on campus compared to students. Another one is location which determines whether you could walk, bike, drive to school and how close stores are such as clothing shops or grocery stores. Lastly is on campus living because you should always look into it since you are going to have to live there as a freshman or commute. (113)

# data[].attributes.body
I think that  factor 30, Financial aid made me rethink about what I am currently looking for in a college because I’ve always looked on wanting to go to a big school or a private school but I have to now think about finance and how to pay for everything because I do not want to stress about money and student loans. I am now looking for a school that I can actually pay for but one that gives me lots of opportunities and has what I need. (88)

# data[].attributes.body
I believe when I am going to be looking at my application for college I dont think I will be looking at the religous aspects of the school so I wouldn't try to apply for a school that is religiously based such as BYU. But the Most important factor for me would probably be the offered majors or the graduation rate because when I am looking for a college I want to be able to understand the difficulty and the Type of schooling it will be. (86)

# data[].attributes.body
A factor that makes me rethink what I am currently looking for in a college is the campus size. Personally, I would like to attend a fairly large campus because it will likely have many activities that I would like to participate in. I want to have a very fun college life that I can enjoy. I also want to step outside of my comfort zone and meet new people, trying new things, because I want to create memories that will last forever. (83)

# data[].attributes.body
Three factors that stood out to me the most have to be location, curriculum, and work study. I picked location because that is one of the most important factors to me even before the 33 factors. I picked curriculum because I barely considered it before the 33 factors and now I know that it is very important for choosing a college. Lastly I picked work study jobs because I would like to get a job in college and I never thought about how a college not having a work study position might affect my choice when choosing a college. (99)

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the least important factor is teacher aid because they are only really needed when you go to a big school. I am not really sure what school I will be going to and what the size of the campus will be but I doubt I will go to a big school. My most important factor is financial aid qualifications. School is very expensive, and getting the right kind of help is very important. (76)

# data[].attributes.body
When a student is overlooking a college so that they can attend after high school, I believe they should overlook the factor of the Admission rate. I think that the Admission rate is important for a student to look at before applying to a college because most of the time students can end up wasting money because they try to get into a school with a low admission rate when they are not academically competitive. (75 words)

# data[].attributes.body
Yes some of these factors did make me rethink some factors because now that I think about all these factors there is more than I knew before at least more to incorporate into choosing a college like cost I wouldnt want to go to a expensive school and then have massive debt after. Another one would be course quality because if the quality of the major isnt good I would probably have a lower chance of passing. (77)

# data[].attributes.body
some factors I believe students over look the most when choosing a college is lacking the amount of research they actually do about the department of study. for example people may want to go to a really prestigous school such as Yale or uc Berkeley but they don't look into if the school has positive feedback from the program they want to go into at that school. and the problem with that may be is that another school that might be easier to get into or cheaper can have a better program than the other school. after all this said its still never a bad idea to have a dream school such as the ones names just as long as you know they have what you want.

# data[].attributes.body
A factor that made me rethink is that I want to go to a college with a large campus and good level of sports. I learned that when the school has high level sports they have better football games. It's better for the students' social life and helped me know what kind of school I want to go to. It made me realize if you want to keep all the fun and football games you have in high school then it's important to find a college with a high social life. ( 91)

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that as my senior year approaches, the factors that will guide my college list the most will be acceptance rate, graduation rate, quality of professors, location, and cost. These are all really important factors that I know will guide my college list. Being accepted and being able to have a good chance of graduating through having quality professors and the school having a high graduation rate determine my choices. Also, I need to be able to afford the school I get into. (84)

# data[].attributes.body
I think the factor that many students overlook is the quality of professors. I feel like many students may or may not look at this a whole lot because they don’t think it is the most important thing, when in all honesty, it could be a really important factor because you want to make sure you are getting the most out of your education, and make sure that your professors know what they are doing and making sure that you get the education you need. (words 95)

# data[].attributes.body
The factor I think that most students end up overlooking would be the course offered. I do think that students look at other imprint factors like admission rates, cost, and campus itself. I do think that they typically skip over the course offered. Sometimes students will be set on a college and when applying they realize at the last minute that Teri school doesn't really specialize in their major at all. I think it's extremely important to choose a college that will have your major offered and to be sure that you will be learned. (95 words)

# data[].attributes.body
I think the most important factors will be the cost and its location. Understanding the factors of money can play a massive role in which college I can alppy and attend. Also, the location, the farther away from home, can lead to feeling sad and homesick. Another thing would be the application and admission rate, because why even apply if it's less likely to even get in? It's good to strive but have something to fall back to.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like most students overlook the graduation rate. With all the excitement that is shown with school and all the cool add on schools have, I feel like people never look in to the graduation rate and it is easily overlooked. I personally would want to go to a school with a high graduation rate because I know I have a good shot at graduating from there, and it shows a lot of other people have graduated.

# data[].attributes.body
Three factors from the article that stood out to me the most were studying abroad, the size of the campus, and the work study. Learning more about studying abroad is very important to me because I plan to do that in college. I would like to know more and research more on how it works. The size of the campus also matters when picking a college. I want to go to a college where there isn't a very high student-to-faculty ratio so that I can gain access to the professors easily. Lastly, work study to me is important because I plan to work, or at least do an internship, during college.

Some of the factors will guide my college list the most, is location, what colleges are affordable realistically, and what is close by so my parent's don't have to worry so much if I was out of state it would be harder and I would need time to adjust, and that was my original plan but I don't think I will until after 2 yrs and money, because, money I will need to learn how to budget and stretch out certain things, not just always buy. How I will research this is through my older cousins experiences of going through college, and googling websites. (104)

# data[].attributes.body
One factor that made me rethink what I’m looking for in a college is definitely the location, and what the city around it has going on. Before, I didn’t mind where the college I was going to go would be, but after reading the many factors, I realized that I would rather stay somewhere in California, where there’s lots of activities and things to do. If I went somewhere unfamiliar, I would be uncomfortable and homesick, and have to adjust to a completely new environment on top of already being all alone. (92)

# data[].attributes.body
A factor that, after taking notes that is making me rethink the college I am currently looking at is Admission Rates. I love the school, San Diego State. But I never really realized that the acceptance rate is only 34%, which is pretty hard. It is possible, but it would definitely be a stretch, especially considering my GPA and other factors. I think to save my parents' money, I should consider this factor and be realistic. (76 words)

When I am near the end of my high school career and start submitting my college admissions I am going to look at the programs in my colleges of choice that would guide my decision the most. I want to go to a college that has a great job placement and pathway with my major. I want to feel very prepared for my major and be able to take every advantage I can in college. (75)

# data[].attributes.body
I believe once i get closer to my senior year I will begin to look at my options for college with the admission rate and the average GPA that is accepted into that program. So my senior year I will do my best to maintain a 3.7 and take at least one AP class, but i also am going to try to take STATS class to help me boost my knowledge on fiance since that is what I am going to major in at college.(85)

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the most important to me is the quality of professors and the least important is the party life. I say this because party life doesn't interest me at school and that should stay in a different setting since you go to school to learn and you can do whatever else you want after school or during the weekend. The most important to me are the professors since they are going to guide me and teach me during my years at college and my work depends on them to teach me and me actually learning an understanding. (99)

# data[].attributes.body
I think Students forget to consider the specifics of their chosen program, the true vibe of the campus, and the financial ramifications of their choice. I think they also overlook the size of the school and classes because that effecets how you learn the most and has the biggest imapct on your grades.

# data[].attributes.body
A factor that I think most people overlook when choosing a college is the graduation rate. This is an important factor because it determines how many people actually like the college. I would like to go to a college that has a high graduation rate because that tells me that people actually enjoy going to school here. Not only enjoy going to school here, but it also shows me that I am capable of successfully graduating without any struggle. (79)

# data[].attributes.body
I think the most important factor will be financial aid and location. If I attend a large school, I need to ensure I have sufficient financial support to afford it. Location is a significant factor, but I don't really care whether I stay close to home or go out of state. But either way, I need to do what's best for me financially. Some factors that aren't as important are how big the campus is. I don't care if it's big or small(83 words)

# data[].attributes.body
I feel many overlook the factor of studying abroad, curriculum, and activities. Studying abroad may seem scary but it can be such a wonderful experience you're able to travel and take a break in a sense while not taking a gap year. Curriculum can be crucial when applying to some schools that require different things as well as offer other things that you may not be aware of or want to deal with, it’s better to know this beforehand before committing. Lastly activities, these aren’t a big deal for some but they are big for freshman in college, you can’t and shouldn’t isolate yourself in your dorm. You need to be open and socialize and make new friends!(118)

# data[].attributes.body
Three factors that stood out to me the most from the article would be location, admission rate and cost. I say all these because location I would want to go to far so there are less schools I would be willing to go to. The admission rate is also important because I might like a school but may not be able to go because of all the competition in the school. Lastly I would say cost because it is hard to pay for everything and it would be better to have less debt. (93)

# data[].attributes.body
As I near my senior year, the factor that I will be researching the most about when looking at colleges is the acceptance rate. This is super important because this will allow me to see if I actually have a chance to get into that college. If the college has a high acceptance rate, I can know that my probability of getting into that college will be high. If it is low, I can see that my chances are not that high. (88 words)

# data[].attributes.body
I think the factor that would be the most important to me is cost and the professor quality. I feel like the cost is important because I want to go to a school that is good but also affordable. And I think that the quality of professors is important because I don't want to take classes with an unlikable teacher. And the least important factor to me is party life because that's not something I really care about. (78)

# data[].attributes.body
The three most important factors that stood out to me in the article were Extra Curricular activities, Location, and Quality of the Professors. All these factors are important to me because I am very involved in extra curricular activities and I would love to be there to support our team. If the location is in a rough place like raining all the time or cloudy then I wouldn't want to be there in my college life. The quality of the teacher is also important because we always need good teacher to make sure you get the best information you can get. (101)

# data[].attributes.body
No, most of these factors were already talked about in the AVID program so most things were not a surprise for me. Reviewing these factors only made me look more into what college would be a perfect fit for me so that I do not have to wast a lot of money when it comes to picking the right college out for me. I hope to after reviewing more factors about college I am able to be clear for what college I want to attend. (85 words)

While learning about the 33 factors, there were a couple factors that made me rethink what I am currently looking for in a college. One of these is finding a school I would feel safe in. I would do this by researching the crime rates around the area. I also thought more about going to a college where the quality of professors is good and making sure that the teachers' teaching is easy for me to understand and take notes from. (81)

# data[].attributes.body
I would say that the most important factor when thinking about college for me is cost. And to majority of people, I think they would agree. Most people want to afford college without student loans, because loans means debt. cost is also very important because it means you have to pay for your education, and your education can determine your career. To me, cost is the most important, especially when considering how my family can afford college.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the most important factor for me would be acceptance rate. Its really important because if the acceptance rate is super low and your most likely not getting in or you didnt do really well in highschool then it might not be the school for you. Apply to schools you think you will get into. My least important factor is sports. I dont really care for sports so I dont mind if the school has any or not. (79)

# data[].attributes.body
I think a factor that most students overlook when looking for a college is the size of school. Depending on the school size it can impact a students everyday life and the way students learn. If the school is big the students' classes can be very far from each other, and can be hard being on time to each class. Also with a big school it can be hard to find the resources you need and teachers' assistance. (78)

# data[].attributes.body
The factor that will be the most important to me when it’s time to make my final decision is the Freshman Retention Rate because it indicates the overall student satisfaction and if they go back to the school or not. Least Important to me would be student faculty ratio because I don’t mind having a big class or having a small class, it would all seem more the same to me, but I would prefer a smaller student ratio. (78)

# data[].attributes.body
I believe something that most students overlook is student faculty ratio. It is important to know whether you are going to a college that has jam packed lectures or a small more connected class. This can also lead into whether you want to get into a bigger or smaller school. This is solely based on preference, and if you are more introverted or more extroverted. You can check this by going to niche.com and looking at all your schools of interest. Word count 82

The 3 factors that stood out to me the most in the article were cost, quality of professors, and admission rate. These stood out to be because the cost of college can be very detrimental to my choices if I end up not being able to afford the college. The quality of professors is very important because I want to get the most out of my education with professors who are experts in their field. (75)

# data[].attributes.body
In senior year, the factor that will guide my college decision the most is freshmen retention rate. I dont want to go to a school that has a really low freshmen retention rate because that means the transition might be really hard and if alot of people dont return for their sophmore year its probably not a good school.

# data[].attributes.body
as I continue to get closer and closer to my senior year I believe that looking into most likely all of the factors that the article talked about. first of all I'd choose schools that have the major I want to go into and then from there look into the most important factors I think are important to me. such as looking into the course of study,how much tutoring the school offers, looking into the professors and programs,student social life so if the school has lots of clubs or student activities I think its important to make sure your school has everything you want to help make your time there as smooth as possible

# data[].attributes.body
As I get closer to senior year, factors that will guide my college list the most are cost and location. I want to go to a college that’s affordable for my parents, and hopefully get financial aid or a scholarship. I wouldn’t want to go to a college that leaves me with a lot of debt when I’m older and graduated from college. Location is also important because I want to go to a college with an environment that really fits me and my needs. (85)

# data[].attributes.body
The least important factor to me is Greek life because I have no interest in joining a sorority. It does not influence my college decision. The most important factor, however, is major selection. I want to attend a school that offers the major I am passionate about so I can succeed academically. My goal is to earn both my associate and bachelor’s degrees, so finding a school that supports that path is a top priority in my college search. (80)

I think that the factors that most people overlook, and me as well is the graduation rate. It is super important because it shows if people liked the college by not transferring out or seeing if they finished going to that school. Graduation rate can show how good the school actually is and maybe why not many people can handle that school. In some cases the graduation rate can be more important than the acceptance rate.

A factor I will be using in senior year is about learning to find ways to deduct my application fee to each college I apply to. I feel like a lot of money can be saved because there's a lots of people who were able to get money taken off by using tips and tricks. I think it's important because it will help my parents save a lot of money that would be going towards just fees. I will for sure be using that senior year. (86)

The three factors from the article that student out the most were Cost, Greek Life, and Admission rates. Cost is definitely so important because I don't want to student loans or have my parents go broke. Greek life is really important. I want to be in a sorority to make lots of new friends and be involved. Admission rates are important because they give me an idea of whether I could go to the school.

The factors that will be most important to me will be cost and financial aid. I want to go to a good school, but I also don’t want to be in debt. The least important factor to me is on campus living. I want to still live at home and commute to my school, so on campus living isn’t important to me unless I change my mind. So far, living on campus doesn’t interest me.

The work study factor makes me rethink what I currently look for in a college because now I am thinking about working in college. However, if I do play a sport for that college, I wouldn't have a lot of time to do work study. Another factor that makes me rethink what I am currently looking for in a college is sports. Division sport is important to me when choosing a college because I plan to play volleyball in college. Divisions 1, 2, and 3 don't really matter that much to me because some schools in Division 2 are better than Division 1.

A factor that made me rethink what I would like in a college is greek life, I never really wanted to be a part of any of that. But now that I am getting older, I think I want to at least try it and put myself out there. I feel there are so many misconceptions about Greek life, but honestly, I think that you can't judge something until you've experienced it. I would love to make new friends and immerse myself in that college experience. Word count 86

These factors make me currently think about what I want out of college because I've always been naive about what school I want to go to for the aesthetic, but now, looking at the different factors that go into college, it really makes me rethink what school I want to go to, and even if I really want to go to college in the first place or if i want to look at other options when it comes to my future these factor not only brought me to reality about what i want but also has me stress- 98

One factor that is kind of making me rethink what I'm looking for in college is transportation, because it's very important to know how I can get around campus and outside of campus. If I'm close to home, then I would like a car to go back and forth. I'm out of state, then I don't know how I would get around unless I use the public bus or train. But I can always get a pass for the bus (80 words)

The most important factors are acedemics programs,cost,and campus life.The least important would be greek life and party life because that shouldnt make or break a decision into where you go to college,and isnt the most important thing to look at when choosing your college.

I think the factor that is most overlooked when it comes to looking at a college is the actual size of the college. I feel like many dont actually look into the size and believe it doesn't make a difference but it actually does. It not only affects the size of the campus but the student ratio and even the amount of help you get. I know myself personally does not do great when it comes to big schools becuase I work better when i have someone that i can ask for help for if i need it but for some school it can be hard becuase when there is a bigger school it can be harder to find help but for some people it does work becuase it can push you to become independent 135

Most students only think about college rankings or parties, but they forget other important things. How classes are taught, help from teachers, extra costs, job or internship chances, and campus life all matter. Where the college is, how big the classes are, and how good the programs are are also important. Thinking about these things can help students pick a college that really works for them. I think it's important to notice all factors because small ones are usually left out but they can be important factors. (87)

Students mainly overlook the size of the school and the student to faculty ratio. I feel like when students look for a school they don’t look at these factors as much as they should be looked at. The size of the school is important because it’s a big factor when wanting to be comfortable in school. The student to faculty ratio is also an overlooked factor also because you always want to know if you will learn best with lots of people around you or with less. (87)

I think the factor I will explore further in my senior year is curriculum quality and return on investment. I want to make sure my college is offering the highest-level courses related to my major. I also want to make sure that when I get out of high school, I am not drowning in student loan debt and get paid more than I spent after a couple of years of working in the field of work.

A factor that I think students overlook when choosing a college is limiting themselves to applying to schools close to home or the school that they're sure will accept them. By doing this it can prevent them from exploring a wider range of opportunities that can be a better fit for them. Therefore, by students focusing too much on being close and choosing the schools that they know will accept them can be a disadvantage in a way of creating a chance for them to be able to grow and challenge themselves.

As I near senior year I believe that the factor that will guide me to a college is course availability. I say this because I dont want to take random classes that wont benefit me. I need to take classes that are required to graduate and that will actually benefit my major. I dont get how some students spend hundreds of dollars to enroll in classes that dont even care about or dont even attend. I find it stupid. You go for the education and courses they provide and you dont take that to your full advantage. I know that some schools offer classes that fit into every major such as Literature, Engineering, Biology, Architecture. With all of these options available to you some students still make mistakes.
