Ask your college host:
• What activities and services are available to help students get settled (academically and socially) during their first year?
• How big are the classes?
• What is the total cost of attending the college?
• What types of financial aid does the college offer and how do I apply?
• Are all freshmen assigned to an academic advisor?
• Where do most freshmen live?
• Can I take a tour?
• What activities are available for students?
• Who teaches the courses for first-year students?
• How successful are the college's graduates in finding jobs?
• What services (such as transportation and shopping) are available locally?


Ask any students you meet:
• How easy is it to meet with faculty?
• Are you able to register for the classes you want?
• What is there to do on weekends? Do most students stay or leave campus on weekends?
