You should begin looking at universities about 18 months before your intended start date. It gives you time to properly research schools and find those that interest you the most.
You should start with a list of ten universities that answer the WHAT and WHERE questions. The universities should offer WHAT you want to study and should be located in a place WHERE you would like to study. Carefully research the information available to you on the schools’ website especially relating to student life, your program choice, on and off campus housing, tuition costs, scholarships, extracurricular activities and the availability of a Caribbean Students’ Organization.
Also, be sure to request application forms and brochures from the school to be sent you via mail.
Sit down with your parents and review each school.
List your likes and dislikes of each.
Further cut down your list to FIVE and apply to all five of these schools and they should include: your top two dream schools; two "good match" schools (schools that match your interests) and your safety school (a school you are confident you can get into with ease).
