If you are planning on going to college, have some family discussions about how to proceed in the college process. Ask yourself questions and write down the answers. One question you should definitely ask yourself if you have a very specific career plan like you want to become a chemical engineer or a virtual reality designer, is: “Which schools have that program?” Simply use Google to search for those schools and then ask more general questions, like those below, once you have found them.
The EA Team wants to offer you some questions you could ask yourself to begin this process. You might have an immediate answer or some of them might require some serious thought or check with a college counselor. Here are some useful ones to ask.
Do I want to go to a college in a city or do I prefer a suburban or rural environment?
Do I prefer a huge school like Michigan or a small one like Wheaton?
How much money can my family afford to spend on college?
Have I matched my grades and SAT/ACT scores to those required by the college of my dreams?
How hard am I willing to work to get into the colleges of my choice?
