Why is the College Choice so Important?

So Many Choices
There are over four thousand colleges and universities in the USA and narrowing down the list of options to a manageable numbers is a challenge--- but IS possible with this resource.

Fall-out (Attrition) Rate
One-third of college freshmen do not return to the same college the sophomore year. This points to the need for more careful discernment on the part of parents and their students in the initial choice of “where to go to college.” The Collegebound book is packed with valuable advice from a veteran higher education professional in the area of enrollment management and student services.

The Sticker Price
The price of college has been too big of a determining factor in the college choice in recent years--- parents allowing the price tag to dictate a college choice and many times placing their kids in the cheapest college rather than the best college. Many ask themselves later, “Was the cost, worth the price?”

Students’ Faith Crashes and Burns at College
The hearts of our kids are at stake, especially during the college years. Research shows that half to three quarters of our Christian kids will step away from their faith during the college years. The faith of our kids should be a primary consideration of where they go to college. Dr. Shaw provides godly wisdom in helping Christian parents discern the best choices for their college bound teens to flourish in their walk with Christ.
