3.            Location of the college

4.            Is it in the country? The city?

5.            Is it far from NYC?

6.            In what sports division is this college?

7.            Is it a large college community? A small one?

8.            Think seriously about what you want in a college?

9.            How can this CBO help me on my journey to adulthood?

10.          Do I have an IEP?

11.          Can this organization help me to find work after high school?
