Many, many, many factors went into my college choice. I first looked for what type of college I wanted to attend, large or small, I decided a small college would give me a better learning atmosphere. The next thing I looked for was a college with a good engineering program since I wish to go into chemical engineering. I then looked at which colleges would offer me a better financial aid package. I then looked at what colleges I fit into (Ivy League, Top 50 Universities, community colleges, etc.), and looked amongst the choices there. I took virtual tours of the campus to see which one aesthetically appealed to be. Once I had these narrowed down I looked at campus and community crime rates, likeliness of finding a job after graduation, average salary, and happiness amongst students. Hope this helps you much.
