create a pennant (see sample on the university website). Your pennant must
look like the pennant of your college. After your

pennant.

faculty ratio is in my preference which will allow me to have the
relationship I want with my professors.

Things I dont like: It is a lot more expensive compared to public state

schools; twice as much. However, it does offer larger financial aid
 packages and scholarships. I would not be getting the dorm

me on the higher end of the scale when applying for jobs.

Things I dont like: I dislike that the school is huge and not in Oregon.
Alone, there are 4,727 undergraduate students enrolled. I prefer a
smaller school, that allows me to have a relationship with my
professors. Also, the out of states resident fees make the tuition
higher.

 Final thoughts:
Based on my current qualifications, I am eligible for each of the colleges. My GPA is at
3.88 so I will have to either keep or improve it even more. When taking the SAT or ACT, I want
to at least get a 1000 on the SAT and 20 on the ACT. My focus programs are leading me in the
right path of psychology and so are the courses I have already taken (sociology and
psychology).
