Overview

Relying on College reputation and Brand Value is a good thing, but just because a college has a “highly-ranked” or “prestigious” history doesn’t mean it’s the right College for you. Keep in mind that one person’s dream college could be another’s nightmare. Also, only looking at the website or relying on a college’s advertising is a mistake because they tend to idealise college life. Students get unrealistic expectations of what campus is like. It’s always better to visit and experience college.
