There are thousands of colleges in the U.S. Which one will you attend?
The Class of 2021’s Guide to Applying to College
Applying to college is overwhelming. However, your Class of 2021 has been there!
Take it from the seniors: The college admission process is overwhelming. Searching for schools, writing your essays, hitting “submit”… it seems so simple, but yet it’s so much. Here’s some advice from seniors on the other side of the process.
First, you need to know where you might fit in. If you want a big-school experience with college sports, it doesn’t make too much sense to attend a liberal-arts school.

On the other hand, if you like that closely-knit community, you should head to a small school.
This brings us to our few points… Use the grid below to navigate.
