My advice for future students is to get tested from the college of their choice in Careers and academic studies before committing to a major. These academic tests will tell a student where their skills are at, and what major to strive for. This is very important in college becuase it will save a student time and money, and these tests will help any student to focus more on their major, and by focusing more on their major, their grades will always be at a level that any graduate school will accept without complications of admitting a student to graduate level work. In addition, these tests will help any student know where and how to reach their goals in life, and what they are good at. Many students from across the nation are not aware that they may have skills or abilities that they do not know about. Always take the time to test yourself (students) on what they may not know about their abililties and skills; this is the secret to successfully completing college and becoming a skilled professional.

Visit the campus and talk to others that have attended there. Look into scholarships more to help pay the tuition.

The biggest part of the decision should be where you feel comfortable. You can always make new friends but if you are misserable at the school you choose you wont want to do anything and will most likey want to transfer the next year or even semester. So, I would say, pick someplace that you know you will be happy, make new friends, and have a blast your paying for it so enjoy it and have a good time! Thank you very much and good luck with your college selection. Samantha Fetter

They should find a college that has diversification of majors that the student wants to persue that way if they decide to change majors, the student won't have to transfer colleges because the school they are attending right now doesn't offer that major. Make sure you have enough money saved or encourage your child to get a job during the summers so that the student can focus on their school work during the school year and so that they get to have a social life when they are not studying. If the student is forced to have to work alot because they can't afford school, finding time for school and a social life can be pretty hard.
