Choosing a university to go to school at can be a major decision for many young students, as well as for parents. While it is and should be the final decision of the student, parents often weigh in on the pros and cons of a particular school. And sometimes they even use the leverage of financial assistance in helping to determine a potential alma matter. However, in the case of Miley, he parents were completely open to and supportive whatever academic institution she wanted to choose. And after a year long search, she ultimately decided on the same school her mother went to, the University of California Irvine.

The family lived in Sacramento, California, which is where Miley was born and raised. She loved her hometown and was likely going to return to it after she finished her degree but she felt strongly that she needed to venture out on her own and experience a new place with new faces. And while Irvine wasn’t far, in fact it wasn’t even out of the state, she still felt it was far enough that it counted as being out on her own. And she was attracted enough to the school itself as well as her specific program that she didn’t feel she needed to continue searching just to go further away.

Miley and her parents spent a weekend in one of the hotels Irvine to find a place for her to live. They checked with the university to get assistance on finding a quality and safe off campus residence for their daughter. One of the things they discovered was that Irvine was one of the safest cities in the nation and had also been determined to be one of the top choices of cities to life in. This pleased her parents very much, while Miley was more impressed with the beauty of the campus and dreams of her future collegiate career. They looked through information on roommates and house sharing and contacted one of the offers. She was able to find an apartment that she would share with another incoming freshman and felt like she may be about to meet her first friend.
