Article response example: (3rd hr.)
Choosing the right college can feel like a very difficult, confusing decision. However, Hopkins provides some valuable advice for those trying to make the choice that best fits their goals. For example, if you are accepted to more than one school that is on the top of your list, "think back to why you applied to each." By weighing pros and cons of what schools have to offer and their advantages, one is able to make an informed decision. Another practical tip presented in the article is to make one more trip to the schools that interest you the most. It is a fantastic way to get an understanding of what life will be like if you decide to join their student body.
Making such a big life choice can be intimidating for some; however, by weighing the decision carefully, students can feel much more confident in their decision. A major consideration when choosing a school is the cost of tuition/housing and what kind of financial aid options are available. Hopkins suggests trying sites like Simple Tuition in order to "explore their financial options through free tools." This practical advice is beneficial both to students and their families. With a little research and clear thought, prospective college students can feel more at ease with planning their future.
