Going to college involves an enormous commitment of time, energy, and money.
How do you select a college that will give you the best education for your money? And how can you use these formative years to set yourself up for success—in your career and your life—long after you’ve moved on from your first post-graduation job?
In this presentation, you’ll learn which metrics matter when comparing colleges (and which don’t), and then how to use your college years to acquire an education that will last a lifetime.
