The best experience I've had by attending college is preparation for the real world. I have learned that working hard will get you anything you want. It has been valuable to me to attend college because it has taught me that working hard will get you ahead. Whether my dreams are big or small, going through the process and working hard helps you achieve them.

I am returning to college after a 10 year absence. Getting my bachelors degree has improved my self confidence, knowledge and ability to overcome obstacles. Going back to school will allow me to change my career to one that is more gratifying on personal, professional and spiritual levels.

I see going to college as the next step after high school if I want to be somebody in life. Going to college will help me achieve my career goal of becoming a doctor one day. It is valuable to attend college to learn what we need to know to become successful in life. Also, in the process of going to college I have made lifetime friends and gained new positive experiences. College is a time for independence, learning and a way to prepare oneself for the future. Having a college education will expose me to many different things and it will help me become more well rounded. By going to college, students will contribute so much more to society than they would if they don?t get a higher education. In addition, if they decide to start a family later on in life they can have financial stability. Finally, having a college education will help me get a financial income that is necessary to live in today?s fast changing world.

if i could go back to high school, i would advise myself to do several things. First, i would tell myslelf to take more college prepatory classes and exams. While i took several in high school, i truly learned the value of these classes when i enrolled in college. In addition, i would tell myslef to acquire better study habits as well as focus on getting a perfect gpa, which i believe is very attainable. in addition, i would convince myself to live on campus in order to get the the full college experience. last but not least i would tell myself to meet many more new people than i currently have.

She smiled at her memory come to life, blue gowns exited the high school. She discovered her within that blue sea. Pulling her aside, she said to the gaping girl, ?I don't have much time. I'm the future you. Proof? You have an ear infection. Sad to have it on graduation day. But I need to tell you... A bit of a college crash course really: To get those A's, you have to study on your own. Your teachers aren't going to spoon feed you. Make a schedule of when to study. Don't procrastinate, do a little each day. Designate a specific place to study in your room and at school. Give yourself enough time by not wasting it on TV. Get involved in extra curricular activities from the get go. Experiences from these will make you a more rounded person. Experiences are what we all live for. But most importantly, breathe. You're young. Don't worry too much. Things usually work themselves out in the end. Remember: do you best, and God will do the rest. Enjoy every moment of what you have. No regrets. Carpe Diem...?And just like that, she disappeared.

Before college, it was truly my number one fear. I stressed myself out so much anticipating the change and unexpected sector that was quickly turning into a reality. The night before I left and was packing my car I began crying because I was so scared of the change that was happening and was afraid to embrace it. I am such a perfectionist and equally a diligent planner, and not being able to plan out my every move at a new school with new people took an overhaul on my mind and emotional status. If I had to go back in time I would tell myself to relax. Since college I have made the best of friends, learned more about myself than I had ever imagined I would, became more independent, and truly became comfortable accepting new possibilites and changes which may or may not happen down my life's path.

Don't be scared or nervous. Professors are here to help you achieve your goals. They will assist you in anything you need. Make sure to be nice to them and greet them before every class. Classes are going to be a bit more difficult but you can set your schedule the way you want to. Make sure to study a lot individually because in class all details will not be covered. Teachers won't tell you what will be on the exams; it is your duty to pay attention and study on your own. No one will be calling home or giving you a detention if you are late to class. You are officially an adult and need to start acting like one. Just remember to take it easy and don't lose yourself. Meet as many people as you can and get to know them. There will be such a variety of different races, religions ,and cultures. Diversity will be all around you. Let your adventures begin!
