Colleges around the world!

There are so many colleges around the world meaning you have many college options. Ivy league schools are the hardest to get into. There is a 10% chance that you will get accepted into an ivy league school because of how hard it is. Some ivy league schools are:(Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Cornell, Columbia, Brown, UPenn, and Dartmouth!) Cornell is not that hard to get into, but it still is considered an ivy league school.
Oklahoma State University in Stillwater is an amazing college to go to! You could go to Christian colleges too. Most colleges are near you, while others are not. Do you want to travel far away from home just to go to a college you want to? If so, that is okay. but like I said before: What are the outcomes of being so far away from home?
