I'm going to be a senior in high school in 2 weeks I've had 3 years(so far) of French, 1 of German, 1/2 of Russian, and I've learned some Japanese on my own. I'm thinking of taking a year off and becoming an Au Pair, in Europe, but I don't know. Should I apply to college now? Which ones? What major should I take? Any additional info would be great! Thanks! P.S. I live in Ann Arbor, and a college close (within 2 hours) would be great!

I'm going to be a junior as of September, and I do very well in school. I've been to a few college fairs but I've never found Columbia at any of them, not even the National College Fair at Javits Center.

If possible I'd like some information on financial aid, preferred SAT scores and such. I've searched the the site at M.I.T., no offense to it but it didn't really help me, that or I didn't search hard enough.

Just looking for some nice outside (or inside if anyone has attended or is currently attending the schools) info.
