Question

5．Choosing the right university for you is a big decision with many factors to consider．The institution that you choose will not only be the one that ensures your academic goals，but it will also be where you will live，learn，play sports，socialize and work for several years．Therefore，before you start filling out those university application forms，take a step back and consider the many variables that affect the"fit"of a university to your unique personality and educational goals．Take a look at the following factors，and decide which ones mean the most to you．
     Consider your educational goals．You will discover that different schools are more recognized or progressive in your chosen field of study than others．For this reason，talk to advisors，professionals in your field，or go to clubs organized by the alumni （校友）．When you check out school ranking for your major，you may find that your first choice is not really a match，while another fits perfectly．
     Consider costs．It will be no surprise to you at this point that not all schools cost the same．Some of the more famous schools are so because they are difficult to get into and difficult to pay for．Don't let this necessarily stop you．Just keep this consideration in mind as you narrow your list of potential schools．
     Choosing a university should not be done only on reputation，but also take the academic programs and overall environment into consideration．Be aware that reputations are sometimes out of date or overstated，so first-hand experience is often beneficial．
     Once you've identified the factors that are most important to you，you've taken the first steps towards making a successful choice．Make sure you pick a university that will serve your needs throughout your university career．
