• 4. Compare in-state vs. out-of-state costs and opportunities.

• 5. Evaluate extracurriculars, transfer support services, and clubs.

• 6. Consider personal growth – will this school push you outside your comfort zone?

• 7. Check location for career opportunities in your field (e.g., LA for film, Silicon Valley for tech).
