Do your parents tell you to move out of the house? Go to college. Even if you go to online college you will get out of the house sooner and stay out on your own with the great job you will get. According to the most recent US Government census, Americans with a bachelors degree earned 51% more than those with just a high school diploma. Those with a bachelors degree earned over $52,000 per year on average.
How do you know what college to attend? Here are a few questions to start thinking about to help select the college that is right for you:
1. Is an in-state or out of state college right for you?
2. Is smaller better, or do you like big schools?
3. What financial aid is available?
4. Is a suburban or rural setting better or a city based campus?
5. What programs are of interest to you? Liberal arts or a more focused program?
6. What school rankings should be important?
7. Is there a career services office? Can you find out the percent of people who get a job after graduation?
8. Are there available programs offered by the school for extracurricular activity?
9. What type of campus housing is available? Will the school help you find an off campus place to live?
10. Can you find a professor that can help guide you on your desired career path?
11. Extra credit: Is the school financially secure?
Think about these questions and they will help you narrow down the school that is right for you.
