Choose your wish list

It's normal for any student's college wish list to change throughout high when it

comes time to apply，many seniors have a hard time narrowing down their choices.

There's no hard and fast answer，but there are several things you can do and ask yourself to

make the decision are three pieces of advice that might help.

Do your research

Above all，it's important to figure out your wants and do you expect from your

education? What are you willing to give up?

Veronica Hauad，senior associate director of admissions (录取) at the University of Chicago

in the US，said students should start by taking time to figure_out those questions.

“Find the thing that's most important to you，and then you can start searching on that factor

and sort things out later，” Hauad said.

students find jobs after graduation? An Ivy League school may look good on an application，but

what will the college do to help you find a job?

Students should also make sure they're going to college for the right reasons.

University of Illinois sophomore (二年级学生) Steve Wang said he has met students who

aren't looking at the bigger picture.“I see a lot of students who go to college for the sake of the

college experience—not for a higher education，” Wang explained.“So people show up and spend
