1. What is interesting to you? Okay, maybe not all points are things you may have overlooked. This factor seems redundant, but it still needs to be considered and can be one of the hardest to contemplate.
2. Do you have the necessary requirements? If you graduate a Bachelor's degree at a university, it does not mean that you will be automatically accepted to their Master's programme. Most institutions take into consideration the grade of your Diploma, your soft and technical skills, the motivation behind choosing this Master, and so forth. Be sure to get enough information and that you understand what kind of candidate the university is searching for, because it would be senseless to fail due to a technicality.
3. What will help you most in your future career? If you already chose a career path, or even if you already have a job, your current or future bosses may require specific disciplines. Your choice university will be the best place to learn in-depth notions, another language or advanced computer skills, so be sure to choose subjects new and useful to you, even if they will make you uncomfortable and they may seem hard, at first.
4. What about the money, money? Im sorry to break this to you, but were living in a horrible economy, so finances, tuition fees and living costs are a big issue, that you should consider. Check beforehand how much the accommodation will be, check the price of books, gasp, laugh, and buy second-hand ones, buy food in a can and so on. Life won't be this depressing, obviously, but you can try and manage your poor wallet by searching scholarships all over the world and in all fields, by learning tricks from other students and byresearching what universities are freeof charge.
