We're in the same boat looking for colleges. Our daughter is an average to above average senior, but lazy. I put some pressure on her in looking for colleges, by making her do some of the legwork. It's not whether the college or university is a good fit for you, but for your child. Same goes for career choices. They certainly don't have to be held to anything, but have a few ideas in mind. The cost, size of a school, how far away it is, geographic location, does it offer scholarships and the types of programs your child expresses a possible interest in pursuing, etc., I think that's the sort of thing to be considering. I could offer some suggestions, but they'd be my personal preferences and based on the area where I visited and ultimately went to school, like Bucknell, Lehigh, #^&#^&#^&#^&enson, SUNY Stonybrook, I've only visited briefly, but heard good things about URI, too. Good luck.
