621: How to Compare College Offers & Make Your Final Decision

16 Mar

Join Megan and Erin as they discuss how students can compare and make decisions about college offers, focusing on financial considerations and program offerings. It can be difficult to make that final decision. Families can start evaluating offers by

  • create a pros and cons list for each school, considering factors like location, specialized programs, and affordability
  • evaluate the financial aid packages, including renewable grants and loans, and to consider long-term debt implications
  • attend admitted students’ events, such as overnights

Having multiple good choices is the goal of your college application process. Congratulations! Now take the time to evaluate all of the options as you make your final decision.
