I have gotten a lot out of my college experience. I have changed my major five times since graduating high school and it has taught me a lot. I finially know what path I want to take in life as college has helped me decide on that. I haven't been in any clubs or events but that hasn't changed my educational experience. College has taught be to be more responsible since going to class isn't always mandatory but yet very neccessary. It has been very valuable to attend because your grades depend on it for one and for two, if you don't go to college, advancements in your life are hard to come by. A college degree means everything to me. It has mainly been valuable for me to attend not only for myself, but for my children as well. They are my motivation and I want to provide them with a better life. I also want to be a role model for them so they will be more likely to attend college.

I have gotten a valuable education out of my college experience. I have established myself in a new town around new people and it's just a new way of life. It's very different but I have definitely gotten a new outlook of everything. My college has been valuable to attend because it's cheap, very career oriented, and very diverse. There are people just like me that are always willing to help whether they know me or not. The people are friendly and only want you to succeed. The university itself wants to see you succeed as well.

What I've gotten out of my college experience is getting to see that hard work pays off. It also help me become more of an adult when it came for me to getting things done. College has been valuable for me to attend becuase it will give me an opportunity to have an career . It's valuable for me to attend college so I can be one of the few in my family to have a college degree. I also gotten to meet people who have a good out look on life. Without college my life would be alot hard then with college.

I believe my greatest college experience has been playing Division I sports. I have made some of the closest friends of my life and I will keep on meeting people from around the globe in the process. I would not change a thing if I was given the opportunity.

I have gotten a fair amount out of my college experience academically. I have stayed focused in my classes and most of my teachers have provided the help I have needed to succeed. The courses offered here are challenging and I enjoyed working hard to learn the material. Socially, the university I attend is not very useful because most of the students live off campus, as the dorms are limited and most students live in town. The smaller university setting is friendly, however. This college of course is very valuable to attend because you can't take a college education for granted in this economy and I am very thankful to be attending here to achieve my career goals.

having a college experience has taught me how to be dilligent in whatever goal that i want to achieve and it has taght me the value of having a higher education such as being able to get a step closer to my chosen field of study. College experience has taught me about growth because I have watched myself evolve into a more determined and goal oriented person. having had quite a bit of an experience with college has taught me to believe that my future will be bright if i continue to work consistently towards my goals not only in college but life in general.

College is a great way to open up to new experiences and get a feel for the 'real' world. Attending college has been a valuable lesson in learning to be on your own. Going to college will also help an individual with getting a better job in this economy.

I started college right out of high school hoping to be the first to finish college in my family. Unfortunently I had become homeless. I had to drop out of college in my 2nd year and work 3 jobs in order to pay for a motel to sleep in at night. Now Im getting back on track in life. Im working full time and going to college part time. I want a better future and a better life. I am determined to keep going in school so I can be the first in my family to have a college degree. College has give me alot of self confidence for myself and my future. I always try to encourage people to go to college because you cant get very far in life without an education.

IPFW offers so many different opportunites. I went to all the different meetings around campus and heard about the Domestic Exchange Program and decided it was something for me. Currently I'm at UMass Amherst and I love it. I never would have ended up here if it wasn't for IPFW. I learn more and more about myself everyday in college and I would recommend IPFW to everybody. There are so many opportunities there that I never would have found anywhere else. The people are nice and help you as much as you need them. College has helped me discover who I am and that is the most vaulable lessen anyone can learn.
