My advise is simple. Be yourself. Explore who you are and what you want, and apply the same exploration to the schools you consider. Even if you are sure of what you want to do, don't be closed minded. Keep your eyes and heart open to other options, find out if you love something else. Looks at arts and cultures with an open mind and try to learn new things. Meet new people. Let your world expand. The more you learn and experiance the more you grow, both as a person and as an adult. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't do things. Prove that you are your own person and be happy with yourself. And most importantly, don't try to be anything more than who you are. Do not try to change, if you live your life you will change and grow on your own. I have a saying. "Trust the universe and it will bring you the road you should take." Try not to worry about where you are going. Just live, and the universe will take care of the rest. You'll be suprised where it takes you.
