College Search


One of the dilemmas I encountered during this year was deciding where to apply to college, as I hadn’t given the future part of my life much thought. Sure, most of my family attended the University of Delaware, but that doesn’t enclose or even narrow my decision. But as the deadline for colleges rapidly approached my unprepared state, I realized the urgent need for me to not procrastinate any longer. I figured that taking into account my grades and high phase classes; I should have a widened range of options laid out waiting to be discovered. I knew I wanted a university excelling in chemistry, geometry, and biology, as I also excelled in these in school. I researched online for careers which included these subjects and found that biomedical engineering fit the criteria with fairly high starting salary. I searched for colleges offering this major and was eventually able to narrow the numerous options to the University of Delaware, Arcadia University, and the University of Arizona. These are all great colleges offering the opportunity for me to excel, so I was satisfied in my decision although it would still be necessary to break down the list to just one. This is a task for me later down the road as I await the letters of acceptance. Arcadia is a small university about an hour and a half away, Arizona is incredibly far away and a huge university and Delaware is 20 minutes away and a medium sized campus. I am still not exactly sure about which option would best suit my abilities.
