What makes a school a strong fit? Or, if you will, #DoTheStripesFit? Our admission team came up with our top 10 fit factors to consider as you research schools and decide where to apply. Over the next few weeks we'll be sharing questions to consider while building a college list. Happy researching!

#DoTheStripesFit? We're breaking down our top ten fit factors for the college search process and first up is academic opportunities. Take the time to consider questions like: -What degree types, majors, minors and academic programs are offered? -What academic departments exist? -What classes are taught (and can I take them)? -Who are the faculty and how accessible are they? -Will my classes be large or small? -When will I declare my major? Can I change my major? -Can I study abroad?
