College Search Lesson Plan

Students will identify key college selection factors (e.g., location, size, majors, cost) and apply them by researching and evaluating at least two colleges using a structured worksheet.

Understanding personal priorities and how to research colleges early empowers students to make informed decisions, set clear college goals, and reduce future selection stress.
