Students spend so much of high school preparing to attend their dream college, yet they often don’t think deeply enough about what they actually want to do when they get there. For rising 11th- and 12th-grade students, we are offering a practical guide to choosing the right college. But the Tikvah approach is not satisfied with typical college guidance considerations like the latest US News & World Report rankings, the tactics of early decision, or the size of the campus Hillel. We want you to think about deeper questions: What does it mean to be an educated human being and citizen? What is my calling in life and how will college help me get there? What do I really believe in? Does my college reflect those values? Which campuses will support my ambition to be a proud Jew and Zionist? What does it mean to be a true leader on campus?
