<human>:  I'm applying to college and need help researching potential schools.
<bot>: Start by researching the schools that have the academic programs you are interested in. Check out their websites to find more information about offerings and admission requirements. 2 Consider any additional factors that are important to you, such as location, size, cost, and activity offerings. 3 Make a list of pros and cons of each school to narrow down your picks. 4 Don't forget to look at reviews or contact alumni of the potential schools to get insight into what the school experience would be like. 5 Ultimately, choose the school that best meets your needs and goals. Good luck!
