CTCL: The Student-Centered College Search
From the CTCL website:
Keep the college search student-centered. Consider interests, strengths, and values, and reflect on what truly matters to you—academic programs, campus atmosphere, available support and resources, and extracurricular activities that align with your goals for personal and professional growth.
Explore colleges where you can connect with classmates and faculty and engage in high-impact educational experiences that empower you to shape your future.
Focusing on what inspires and motivates you will help you find college communities where you will thrive.
