1 hour 9 minutes

#013 – On this episode, we help you identify the colleges or universities that meet your needs by asking questions related to life on campus. We dive deep into the importance of applying to schools with a campus culture that provides you with a good fit, and offers the right type of social life. Our discussion will present you with questions to ask yourself about the type of facilities you will like to find in a school, including, types of libraries, labs, technology, gyms, and medical facilities, among others. We will cover the question of whether or not you will want to live at home while attending college. That is a very important question! We will also go over questions related to housing and the meal-plans you may need in college, questions about choosing a dorm, the importance of finding out for how long dorm assignments are guaranteed, and whether or not you will initially be made to share your living facilities with other freshman students. Our conversation will also uncover the different types of extracurricular activities that may be offered to your kid depending on the school you attend, and we finish our conversation by talking about an extremely important subject, campus safety.
