Advice for High School Seniors When Choosing a College: Ask as many questions as possible (from current students, faculty, etc.) and consider the school holistically/for what it offers short-term (i.e., campus life and layout, classes/programs, study abroad) and long-term (i.e., research, job opportunities, proximity to different places, financial aid resources, advising)
