in the end, i chose a college mostly based on geography (and the culture of the area). look into colleges that don't limit their classes to one certain area of study (so you can change your mind).

try to do some soul searching! make a list of things that interest you! you probably already have, but talk to friends and family. make a list of 5-10 colleges that sound vaguely interesting and then research them in depth. visit campuses, if you can. that'll give you a great sense of the college.

For me, I had to consider my major, the distance, size and tuition/fees. A good football team and school spirit is a plus because I'm very concerned with getting the complete college experience. ;]

She rocks!!!!

Maybe there's another school out there that I would love more... who knows... but it's not as definite as you are making it.  If you keep your grades up and stay involved, then transferring won't be all that difficult.  And you know what... if you don't know what you want to do now, maybe a year or two will help clear that up.  There are MANY paths to take in life.  Would it have been easier to know right from the start?  Of course... but sometimes we have to take a slightly longer path to know whether or not this is the one we want to take :).
