• Compare your options.
Note down your academic interests, goals, budget, preferences, and eligibility, to compare and evaluate the universities you are interested in. You can also use internal tools such as compare_universities to get some comparison results between two colleges, including admission requirements, tuition fees, ranking, reputation, and student satisfaction.
