North Georgia College & State University Top Questions

Looking back at my high school years, I had many great times, as well as some bad times. My senior year was the best, but I didn't take full advantage of my year. If I was to offer any advice to the current seniors, I would want them to meet and make as many friends as possible. I had many friends in my life all of them moved away once the summer ended. Things begin to change and your fellow classmates that you would get to see everyday soon vanish once you go to college or hit the real world. Secondly, have fun and make many memories, take trips and see things with your friends, you may not know when the next time you will get to see hang out again once you move off. Senior year is a great and fun year, make the most of every opporntunity. The final thing you need to worry about is your study time. High school is the time to learn great study techniques because once you get to college they don't baby you anymore. Make the most of your time left, because the real world is right around the corner.

First, of all I would strive to do better as a senior and improve all of my grades. the next plan of action would be to participate in sports to catch an eye of a recruiter to a good college. lastly I would start my college search and applications while im still in school to secure myself a spot in a college.

Assuming that I could go back and talk to myself as a high school senior, I would have a lot to tell myself. I would tell myself that college is not as easy as what it may seem like, and it is an opportunity that I have to take seriously. As far as transitioning, I would have told myself that I need to learn to work harder and manage my time. However, the most important thing that I would tell myself is that I need to choose a major and stick with it because if if don't, I will get off track. Many high school senior are told to go to college and get a career, but no one really ever specifies that you should choose the career and choose a major that your going to complete in college. This is probably the most important thing to figure out as a high school student, and many high school students don't realize this reality till they are in college. I would have saved myself some time and money if I had known these things, but it is a live and learn lesson that I can now tell others.

As a race, we can only reach our potential when individuals are informed to where we are intellectually as a whole. From that point, we can use our skill and insight to build onto what we have discovered about ourselves, our environment, and most importantly our limitations. When we can see where discovery has left off we can push past it. Education to me, is my contribution to my race. I have studied and will continue to learn as much as I can so I can put myself in a position to add to what we know as a society. I believe that we were not meant simply to learn and repeat what others have explained to us. I see it as my responsibility to do every thing in my power to reach the maximum potential contribution that I, personally, can offer. My education is bringing me up-to-date on the past, so that I can build the future. Education is the first and necessary step enabling me to do this and for that reason my education is the most valuable thing I possess.

The food may be bad, and there may be a lot of walking, but North Georgia was definitely where I was meant to be. I was the shy kid in highschool, but being in this small environment, I've made many good friends that I can depend on. The most valuable experience to me though, is the Christian organizations. Through Baptist Collegiate Ministries and Epic, I have been able to grow in my Savior Jesus' love. These organizations offer so much guidance and advice based on the Bible, not on worldly expectations. Through them, I have been able to be in small group Bible studies and mission trips and to gain Christian friends who can help keep me on the right path.

I have gotten a lot out of my college experience! I am in the Senior Military program here and it has taught me much. I have learned leadership skills, discipline, physical fitness, time management, and other skills needed in the corporate world. I am also a member of the orchestra here. I play the cello and am first chair and the orchestra student ambassador as a sophomore. I am a History Secondary Education major and I believe this school is an excellent preparation for my future job. This school is known for it's education program and I am proud to be part of it.

the best experience is to be able to be all unanimous ones in a same one to think, thus to construct a better future and to have a defined vision thus to complete the mission of each and to be successful in the professional life, and to be better person.

Out of my college experience so far, I have learned a lot more about myself as well as making many life-long friends. The caliber of friends I have made/met are exactly like me and we obviosuly get along well. I could not imagine me going to any other college or university. North Georgia College and State University is the school I always wanted to attend and now I am here. Most importantly, I have received an excellent education. The professors are very understanding and are willing to guide me through anything I may need help on.

I have grown so much because I am attending college. I have gotten out of my comfort zone and made friends who I never would have met if I weren't in college. I am obtaining a valuable education so that one day I will be able to educate others. I have learned how to take care of myself without having to turn to my parents for everything. I have grown spiritually by becoming involved with my campus ministries, and I now have the opportunity to go on at least two missions trips this year. The classes I have taken here have taught me much and not just in an educational sense. They have taught me so much about myself and the world we live in. There are just so many things that I wouldn't know if I had not decided to come to college. I also wouldn't be able to pursue my dream job of becoming a teacher without the education that I am receiving here. I feel like a more rounded citizen and an overall better person because of the experiences I have had while at college. I wouldn't trade it for the world.

My college experiance has showed me who I really am. College has helped me realize that I want to do many things in life. I was so set on one degree in High School and I have now discovered my true passions in life. School has always been very important and valuable to me. I feel knowledge is power and the experiance I recieve threw education has made me a stronger person. College has made me want to learn more and discover new things. I find myself more into the sciences, religons, and the arts. I hope by recieving scholarships I can attend to further my education and become all that I want to be.
