I honestly made my final decision based on finances mainly. Due to the circumstances, I wasn't able to to visit any of the schools I was offered admissions to. I looked at tuition, any funding offered, and the cost of living in the general area around the school. I also looked into where the audiology/speech and hearing department was housed. I personally would like to work in a hospital setting; so I gave preference to schools that had the department within the medical school and had an on campus or campus affiliated hospital.
