1. Apply!!!!!
Apply everywhere. Apply as early as you can. The faster you apply the more money you're likely to get and everyone loves free money.
2. It's OK if you don't know where you want to go.
It's OK if you have 10 schools you might consider. Options are good.
3. Tour.
Always tour a place before you go. If you don't feel at home when you visit you won't feel at home when you actually live there.
Life is coming at you faster now than it ever has and, trust me, I've been there. Make sure you limit your stress. Follow these three simple steps and I swear you'll be good.
