Question #1 Is College right for you? When?

How big do you want the school to be?





Small campus 1,000 to 5,000 students
Medium campus 5001, to 10,000 students
Large campus 10,001 or more students


The choice depends upon your personality and how you relate to other people.

Smaller colleges tend to encourage closer contact with fellow students and faculty. Larger ones provide a wider choice of classes, facilities, activities, and people.
