Krista's Advice
The two things helped me make my decision:
1. Visit the school for more than one day and allow yourself to come out of your comfort zone. I found that my visits were more meaningful and I was able to get a better sense of the community when I spent more than one day running around from meeting to meeting.
2. I found asking schools at the Grad Fair "What is your greatest strength and weakness as an institution?" was very helpful because the representatives had to think and be completely honest with themselves and me when articulating the weakness of the institution and what they were doing to turn that weakness into a strength.
