How do you decide what college to go to when you have so many options?

I know what I want to do after graduation this year, but don't know where I want to do it at. I have a lot of options, but just not a lot of time and it's scary to me because pretty soon I'm going to be on my own

Things to Research About Colleges

I've been looking at colleges for a while now trying to narrow down what one I'd like to go to. I just want to see what kinds of things to look for that make one college better than the other. I plan on living in the dorms, so I'll definitely look at those, but other than that (and the fact that they have the major I want) I wanted some more things to look for. It'll help narrow down my list of top choices, and might add a couple other backup plans. So any ideas of stuff to research about colleges would be fantastic!

What are the benefits of being a boy scout?

A few of my friends have recently gotten involved in scouting, and it seems like it takes up a lot of their time. Some of them tell me that they are doing it so they can put in on their college applications. Do colleges value boy scouts (or eagle scouts, for that matter)? Is it something that I should consider doing? #college #college-admissions #leadership #college-bound #college-selection #time-management

I have selected some colleges for my bachelors in culinary arts, however i am not sure which one to select because some of them have good internships and placements, while others have a better teaching faculty or some have amazing events in their campus. What should i give priority to? Also, if you have any recommendations for culinary arts bachelors, especially in India kindly mention it too.

Does anyone know of any good equine colleges?

I have a few years to think about it, so it's not a rushed decision by any means, but I have been looking around at colleges and have a small list. I was wondering if anyone else had any other colleges that would be good for me to add to my list. So, I want to go to college and major in Equine Studies or some other equine major. I plan to be a horse trainer and/or riding instructor, and my dream is to start a business where I can do both, and probably and up boarding horses and offering transportation services too. Some colleges that I've been thinking about are the University of Findlay, William Woods University, Emory & Henry University, and a couple others. I just kind of want some other colleges with good equine programs, and if anyone knows any other majors that would suit my needs better, that'd be great to know too.
