College/University Placement

In terms of choosing an undergraduate college or university, there are more than 2,500 nationwide from which to choose. While college and university may be helpful, the sheer amount of information available can be overwhelming. There are certainly many things to consider such as:

  • What about your major? On average, college students changes their respective course of study twice during their undergraduate schooling. It is important to choose a school that has a curriculum flexible enough to satisfy your interests.
  • School visits - Even if you have settled on a finite list of schools, visiting all of these respective schools may prove to be too costly and
  • What standardized tests should I take?
  • How many times should I take them?
  • Should I take or ACT preparatory course (or TOEFL course, when applicable)? Will it make a difference in my score(s)?
  • When should I start looking at colleges, i.e., my sophomore year, junior year, etc?
  • I am currently in college but am thinking about transferring to a different school. What are my options?
