That's a fantastic question! Here's a positive and encouraging approach to help you out. First, let's start with the exciting part - discovering your passion and choosing a major that truly interests you. Explore various in-state and out-of-state universities offering your desired major, and remember that each college has its unique appeal.
As you compare the university credentials, remember that every challenge is an opportunity to grow, so don't be afraid of high GPA/SAT/ACT requirements. Be sure to also explore the campus environment, as it'll contribute greatly to your college experience.
Reach out to current students on your campus visits, and don't hesitate to get your school counselor's input – they're there to support you every step of the way! Online research and connecting with college alumni can give you valuable insights into what these schools have to offer.
Now, let the fun begin! Narrow down your options to 2-3 universities that check all the right boxes, considering factors like cost, GPA requirements, university ranking, campus environment, and future job opportunities. Apply confidently, knowing that you've done your research and made informed decisions.
Once acceptance letters and financial aid offers roll in, celebrate your accomplishments and choose the school that feels like the perfect fit! For even more information, check out college ranking sites like the ones below to further brighten your path to success:

Maybe you do not know what you want to study? It is possible to go to college as an undeclared major, it will give you time to think what you would like to study. It would be good try different summer jobs and internships in your area as well. You can also go to a two-year junior college. Be sure to only attend an accredited university or college, if you chose that path. College and university is not for everyone. You might want to look into "Teach for America" or "Americorps.gov"
Thank you!!
