Finding your Dream Match

Picking a college is like finding a boyfriend or girlfriend.  A good one can be hard to find. (OK-bad analogy!) Finding your match college entails more than just getting lists from the web; it requires researching the colleges' websites.  It requires asking friends and family about schools.  It means visiting campuses.  It means knowing yourself: your dreams, your strengths and weaknesses, your passions, your fears, your attitudes. Consider your possible career paths or intended majors. Use a Match Engine to help you get an initial list. See the resources below to get started!
