Many international students choose large schools. But a growing number of them are attending smaller ones. (30)They think that smaller college educates much more effectively and much more powerfully. It stretches everyone more. It draws everyone into more different kinds of activities. Of course, there are also good arguments for attending a larger school. Many big schools are widely recognized. And in some cases that might lead to more job interviews than a degree from a lesser known college. Larger schools also have more money, which can mean more resources for education, recreation and research. (31)In addition to size, there are other important things to consider. For example: Firstly, which programs at the school are the strongest? Some schools have stronger programs in the sciences. Others are stronger in the liberal arts. Also, what do the school’s top students go on to do after they graduate? What kinds of activities are offered that might add to the educational experience? Are there sports teams? What about a radio station or newspaper? Something else to consider is the kinds of services that a school offers for international students.
    But Earlham College President Douglas Bennett says one choice tops all others. (32)"The most important choice you make in going to college is who you choose to be yourself. If you’re prepared to bring your best self to college, then it hardly matters where you go to college. On the other hand, if you choose not to be very motivated, not to be very responsible, not to be prepared to work very hard. it doesn’t matter where you go;you probably won’t get a good education. "
