Paying for College

Picking a home school

I've been struggling with researching HBCUs and even figuring out which college I want to attend. Does anyone have any tips on how to start they're college and what to look for to make this process easier? How should I begin my search, and what specific criteria should I look for? Also, if you attend an HBCU, would you recommend it or tell me about it? If you have already chosen your school, could you recommend it or tell me about it, please? Thank you.

Also, how can I attend college DEBT FREE!!!!!!! while also being at a university for 4 years

I will tell you what an admissions officer told me: visit every college you can humanly possible. I will tell you that visiting is the best way to get a feel of the college. As for what to look for, the vibe that the place gives off is a great starting point if you can't narrow it down.
