题目内容
19.Many people in high school cannot wait to go to college and leave their hometown behind.Questions arise,though,when it comes to all of the decisions involved in choosing a college.One of the first considerations may be finance.State and public colleges are often the least expensive.Often,though,the better colleges are private and more expensive.It is sad when gifted students cannot attend a college of their choice just for financial reasons.
Another major factor is location.Whether the college is in a small town or large city can have a major impact on its activities.A water lover probably will be more comfortable spending four years near an ocean or a lake.Those who cannot tolerate heat will probably be more comfortable at a northern college.Distance from home may also come into consideration.If family is a top priority,that person should stay close to home; on the other hand,if independence is desired,a campus farther from home would be more appropriate.
School size also plays a major role in the decision process.If you want to get to know your teachers,a small college is suitable.For those of you who consider yourself a"people_person"and want a wide range of activities,a large college is more fitting.Your area of interest is another factor to consider in the decisionmaking process if you want to get the most from your education.The whole point of college is to learn what is of interest to you.
Crucially(至关重要地),one must take into consideration the colleges by which you can realistically be accepted.An Ivy League school for an average student would probably not be a good match.Similarly,an average school for an aboveaverage student would not work well.The college should provide enough of a challenge for the student to work hard.Although there may not be the perfect college out there,there probably will be one that is close.Those who cannot find a suitable college are probably not looking hard enough.
