College and Scholarships - 9/14

I was asked to search for some colleges and narrow it down to certain schools that fit my preferences. The three colleges that fit me the best were Mercer University in Macon, University of Georgia in Athens, and Georgia Regents University in Augusta. A quality program of study for me would include open study halls, independent assignments, and free time that allows me to compete on a cross country team. All of the Universities that I listed above have the criteria that I listed. I know this because I also have friends that go to these colleges and they hold them to the same criteria as me. The size of the school does not really affect me that much as long as it is not over crowded. I'd like the school to be within 100 miles of home as well, just in case of any family emergencies, or when ever I come back to visit. I also do not mind what type of people go to the school either, I get along with people of all races, shapes, and sizes. The school I apply to must also have a cross country program, because that is my one passion other then physical therapy. The school I am most interested in is Mercer University which is ranked around 200th in the country out of physical therapy schools, it may not be the best, but it has the environment and athletics that would make up for it. Three scholarships I can apply for are the Tommy Aaron/Charlie Aaron Foundation Scholarship, the Holcomb Family Education Scholarship, and the Jim and Dee Snow Optimist Scholarship. These three scholarships include graduating in the hall county area which I will try to take advantage of.
