Do you want to go to a big university or a small one?
I think I'd rather go to a small university, so the classes wouldn't be so large.
Do you want to go out of the state or stay here?
I want to stay in the state, so I will be close to home.
It sure would be nice to be close enough to come home on weekends when you want to. How about a public or private university?
Well, I like the atmosphere of a private school. The students are more serious about school and there aren't a lot of parties.
Yes, but private universities are so expensive. How are you going to pay for it?
I've applied for a music scholarship, and my parents will be able to help me pay for some of the expenses. What about you? What are you going to do after graduation?
I'm going to study in Oregon State University.
Oh, I know a lot of kids who've gone there really like it.
Well, a lot of my friends are going there. And the school has a good teacher preparation program. I've always wanted to be a teacher. I'm really excited about the life at college.
Well, good luck.
