I'm going to be going into my Senior year (Grade 12) of high school.  I'm still doing college searching, but I'm having trouble determining a first choice out of the schools I've seen.  I have a top 3 list right now, but I can't say how I like one more than another.  What were some ways you determined you're first choice for college.  Any help would be appreciated.

Gut feeling. If you haven't been to a place that you knew was it yet I would personally say you haven't been to the right one.

This.

It's hard to explain, but actually walking around on the campus can help you decide a lot. Getting to meet the staff, talking to the other current/future students, and such all can affect your perception of a college pretty significantly.

Ok.  I've visited about 7 schools so far, and I really like 3 of them, but they each have some minor set backs.

yeah, I've visited those 3 schools, but whether it be distance from home, not having certain extra curriculars, or campus size, kinda through me off a bit.
