How do i know which school to attend?

I know that when it comes to choosing a school, you're supposed to look for classes that would help you get a degree in the field you want, but other than that how do I know which school is right for me to attend?

is it common for you to change your major?

When I first started college, I went to become an engineer. But near the end of my first semester, I think I want to become a STEM teacher instead. Is it normal to question the major you thought you wanted, and change to a new major instead? #Majors
