Morris College Top Questions

When choosing a college the first thing you should do after narrowing your options are planning campus visits. Everything doesn't look like the brochures!! Once you visited your dream colleges, imagine yourself walking on the campuses to class everyday, picture the friends you'll make and the professors you'll meet. If you can get a good mental image of that campus then in my opinion thats when you found your ideal campus. For parents, let your teenager explore their options, don't worry about them going out of state or so far away it may scare you. Our world is ful of technologies and transportation beyond our means so they are only a phone call or a long car drive or flight away! Being away from home may be scarey at first but it's an experience that they have to well...have to experience one day! Let them live.. let them learn! College is some of the best years of their lives don't deprive them. Lastly for the student, work hard, learn as much as you can and get active on campus, it makes campus life more enjoyable!

Being a recent college graduate I took the time to review my extent of being a college student striving to obtain a bachelors degree. While reviewing my very interesting life I realized their were some important points that should have been taking into account when deciding where I was going to spend four crucial years of my life. For starters visit as many schools as possible. Study them, research them and then narrow down the selections. Once the listed is narrowed continue to look into this more refined list. Check out the financial aid package, academic background, and the reputation of the school in the "career world" and then choose the one that is most suitable for you. From their make sure you truly are able to make a life at the college because that is where you will spend four or more years of your life.

My advice to anyone particularly the students. ~ research institutions ~ attend college fairs ~go on as many college tours I also reccomend students get involve with a college prep program whether it be on weekends or after school. The college experience is whatever a student make of it. If the student is positive of things in life they would have a great experience. If they are negative not going to class, staying into all kinds of trouble, then they might not like the institution or their peers. My Freshman year in college I was told college is what you make of it, and from then on I was able to better myself throughout my college experience, because I knew the positive decisions I needed in my life. I myself pass on the torch and tell the future college students that "College is what you make of it". Thank you, Mr. Cedric Warner

Take your time, but don't move to slow. Read up on everything that college/university has to offer, such as, social activities, academic involvement before and after graduation. Definitely pay attention to the tuition and what king of financial assistance that particular school offers it students and what's the percentage.
