So, so far I got accepted into 2 of the 7 colleges that I applied too, but I am on the other college letters to come home.
1.What are good questions should I ask them?
2.Where is a good site to look at scholarship opportunities?
3.When should I decide what college to go to, is it until I get all the letters from every college that I applied to?

Um..I'm kind of confused, but I'll tyr and answer? haha

1.What are good questions should I ask them?
What do you mean questions you should ask "them"? You mean the colleges? Why do you want to ask them questions?? Haha..if you mean to find out more about them..I'd suggest looking on their website...there's always so much stuff to look over.

2.Where is a good site to look at scholarship opportunities?
You should look at fastweb.com
http://apps.collegeboard.com/cbsearch_ss/welcome.jsp
http://72.3.140.137/index.cfm
http://www.collegeanswer.com/paying/schola...ship_search.jsp

And also take a look at your state department of education for state scholarships. My high school also has a list of community scholarships =]

3.When should I decide what college to go to, is it until I get all the letters from every college that I applied to?

That is completely up to you. You decide to send the enrollment card in whenever you decide on a college =] Most deadlines are all May 1st, thus I would just make sure to send it in before then.

I meant what questions should I ask the colleges about housing and what to do in order I will prepare for the first day of school there?! So, I do go out of state, is it wise to be at the campus a week before school start so I can familiarize myself with the atmosphere?

haha don't sweat about that stuff. You don't need to ask them anything as of now, everyone else has the SAME questions. =] They'll mail the housing packets to you with information, registration guides and wutnot. Then depending on the school it'll explain to you the process you need to go by. =]

For the first day, they should sent another guide out about orientation for freshman. It is to basically get you acquainted with campus before you start school and tell you when to move in as well! So don't worry, everything comes after you decide to enroll in a college.
