My advice for the college search process is...
I didn’t really know what I wanted out of a college or what to expect and it was never important for me to go visit the college myself and see what it’s like, luckily I happen to like how big VT is and the college town feel. My advice would be to find at least one thing that’s important to you for your dream school to have and start there, whether it be the major you intend to go for (if you already know what that is), or the size of the school, or the Greek life, or whatever, but choose somewhere to start. Find something important to you.
I chose 51¹ÙÍø Tech because...
Gave me a scholarship and it’s an Engineering school
