I chose my school because family had gone there and I had friends attending from my high school the same time I was and it was "familiar" and a price that could be afforded (state school). In other words, it was convenient and comfortable for me at that stage in my life. I found moving away from home into the more adult world a bit difficult for myself so familiarity and comfort had a lot to do with it. The school felt like an "obvious" next step for me.
