Advice for Students: Of course the strength and diversity of programs offered, location, size, and cost of a school are important factors to consider during your college search, but a sense of community and student support services also play a huge role in your overall experience and success. Often, as much learning takes place outside of the classroom as inside, so be sure to explore ALL that a college has to offer. And there’s no better time to check that out then when you visit campus! Also, don't be afraid to reach out to your Admissions Representatives with your questions—we're here to help!
