How to Research Colleges to Apply To Using The Internet 1

When you are preparing your colleges list for application season, you want to start by doing some research. How can you learn about the universities that catch your interest and meet your specific educational goals? Here are a few ways that the Internet can be an invaluable tool during the process.

  • Search for schools that have the best programs for your chosen major.
  • Look at the extracurriculars offered by schools so you can find a university that has the most programs you are interested in participating in.
  • Use social media to browse the schools you are interested in. You may learn a lot about the school, the programs, the staff, and the students by exploring the content.
  • Take a virtual tour – More and more university tours went virtual during the pandemic. It may not be exactly the same as being in person, but you can start to get an idea for the campus and experience online.
  • Check professor ranking sites – Look up some of the professors in your chosen major to see if the university has a good staff who will meet your education needs.
  • Check out webinars on how to select the best colleges for you.
