[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - really? It's called DO YOUR RESEARCH. if you have an informed applicant who knows what is on offer in their possible major of choice then they will have an advantage over your kid who just doesn't know squat.[/quote] +1 and don't just skim the website. Read their press releases. Find a few faculty who teach in the program of interest and look at what research they are doing. Is there something there that aligns with your interests?. Follow social media for the specific school/dept/program of interest to see what they share about events, research, student activities. Read the alumni magazine. Is there some required first year seminar? If so, what were the topics this year? If nothing in there gets the student excited about the school, I'd wonder if it's a good school for them.[/quote]
