If ther was more financial aid available. Since all aid is based on parents earnings, it is difficult to be awarded any money even though mny parents did not pay for my school. i had to take out loans and work part-time for the entirety of my school career. If awards were based on students earnings it would work better and provide students the opportunity to work less and focus on school more.

Perhaps my major, because before I attended Sac State, I had no clue on my major. I was undecided. This sort of postponed my graduation date. If I had knew what I wanted to do with my career life, I wouldn't take so much useless classes. I would have gone straight to the road where I'm supposed to and think ahead of myself to start early with my career goals. It would of helped so much more.

Amanda

I wish that I had known more about the College of Business at Sacramento State. I also wish that I had known more about the scholarships available and the studying abroad programs.
