How a college choice quiz helps you decide

If you keep asking yourself what college should I go to, a quiz can test your research before you commit. Most of the answer depends on details like net price, whether your major is offered, and whether the school is accredited, so a quiz built from those pages makes you check them.

Compare net price, not sticker price, after grants and scholarships.
Confirm your intended major is offered and check its required courses.
Check accreditation before applying so your credits and federal aid are not at risk.
Visit campuses or take virtual tours to judge fit beyond rankings.

Example college comparison quiz questions

Which number should you compare across colleges to see what you will actually pay?Net price, which is tuition and fees minus grants and scholarships, because sticker price ignores the aid you may receive.

True or false: the highest-ranked college is always the best fit for every student.False. Fit depends on your intended program, budget, location, and learning preferences, so rankings are only one input.

Why should you confirm a college is accredited before you apply?Accreditation affects whether your credits transfer and whether you can receive federal student aid, so an unaccredited school can cost you later.

What should you check about your intended major at each school?Whether the program is offered, what its required courses are, and whether it needs a separate application, since some majors admit students differently.

What is a useful first step when comparing colleges?Write down your must-haves, such as major, total cost, location, and class size, then score each school against that list.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a free quiz that picks my college for me?

No, DeckOwl does not recommend schools or rank them for you. It quizzes you on the college material you upload, and the free plan includes 3 generations per month with browser study.

How do I compare the cost of two colleges fairly?

Compare net price, which is tuition and fees minus grants and scholarships, rather than sticker price. Use each school's net price calculator and the award letter you receive, since aid varies by school.

What should I check about a college before I apply?

Confirm that the school is accredited, that your intended major is offered, and what its admission requirements are. Some programs have separate applications or admission steps, so verify them directly on the school's site.

Can I export my college quiz to PDF or Moodle?

PDF, DOCX, Anki, and CSV exports are included in the Plus plan at $99.90/year or $9.99/month. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are available on the Pro plan at $14.99/month.
