Take Advantage of College Matchmaking®
During registration, you’ll be asked to choose from various college attributes you find attractive. These five attributes are:
- Campus Size (small, medium, large)
- Campus Setting (urban, suburban, rural)
- Majors Offered (a large list of categories)
- Institution Type (2 year, 4 year, private, public, etc.)
- Geographic Region (varied)
During registration, colleges also select which attributes apply to their institution.
Students and colleges will be “matched” if their selected attributes match. The minimum number of matching attributes to be “matched” is four out of five. Source: NACAC.org
