The two most similar colleges we studied are Yale and University of Miami. They both are universities and they both are the most expensive out of the three. It is very hard to get into both of them, but they are both very GREAT schools.
The two most different colleges are The University of Miami and I.T.T. Tech because they have nothing in common. Plus, if you didn't know this already, the cost for four years at I.T.T Tech is the same as the cost for one year at the University of Miami.
 
Jonathan- Personally I thought that ITT in ITT Tech stood for Information in Technical Technology, but really it stands for International Telephone and Telegraph! It can be misleading because ITT Tech is a technical school and you would expect it to be something wit the word technology in it, but remember ITT Tech is owned by ITT Corp..
Selena- Well, the University of Miami offers ALOT more than I thought and their sports teams are THE 
 
All 3 of us said that the doing the board was the coolest because we had the chance to be really creative. The funnest part about our board was the fact that we had to get people to come over to our station which meant we could put allot of decorations. 
 
All 3 of us learned how to use microsoft excel to create a spreadsheet. This can help us later if we ever need to make one of those graph things we'll know  how to change the numbers to cents and to add/multiply using excel. This new skill helped us all create our budget on our pages.
 
Selena- The FAU field trip helped me understand how the college experience is, generally. It showed me how my college experience might be like when I am attending college. The FAU tour guide told us how there are actual police roaming the premisis and how there are jobs available for a student to drive around campus at night and help transport the other students to their destination. 


Jonathan- On the FAU fieldtrip I realizide something very important about the choice in college. Technological colleges are great for people who need to hold a job, or a tight schedule but, I realized you can't really do the cool stuff included in real colleges. FAU happened to have an olympic-sized pool, and a basketball court, and amazingly cool majors and centers. They can even give you a decent paying job called night owls, and you really don't have to do much! If you have kind of a tight schedule I would recommend going to ITT Tech. but, if you don't have much on your planner, go to a real college!

Anthony- The FAU feild trip helped me better understand How hard, fun, and how busy the college life is. This field trip told me that you barely get to do anything in your dorm or outside of school. Also that the people who go to FAU are really lucky because of the awsome food they serve in the food court.

This GLIDES project has helped us in many ways including us selecting the college that we would like to attend in the future.

Selena- When I am entering college I have decided to go to The University of Miami. It is a great college and has some of the best courses I have seen. This college really has my attention and I will DEFINETLY consider this college when looking for the perfect college.

Anthony- Yale University has my attention all the way for my future college. This project helped me realize I want to go to Yale because Yale has a major in justice and law. Also it has one of the best law schools in the nation.

Jonathan- ITT tech has really inspired me and I believe THIS college is right for me and I love the fact that it is a specialty school. It offers the best courses and I really like it.
