Do you prefer public or private? two-year or four-year? Commuter school or live on campus? Far from home or visit home on weekends? Known business school or teaching school? And what degree will you pursue? What’s Important To You? Decide what is important to you and then start your college search. To narrow down your selections schedule campus visits.
