South University, Savannah Top Questions

I would tell t hem to make sure thecollege they pick ist he one that they really want to attend because , if you attend a college that you didn't really want to go to you might not work to your potential.I would also tell them to try to join clubs and have fun ,don't stress, but when it comes down to studying and school work take is seriously , but make time for youself also.

If I had to give advice to parents and students about finding the right college, I would first ask the student what they plan to major in? I would ask this question because it will help the student choose a school that specializes in that major or that has an outstanding program in that field of study. Next, I would ask if the child has applied for any scholarships, which will cut down the need for student loans and would save everyone money in the end. If the student is someone from my area, I would suggest that they think about how far away they want to be from home. From my experience with two other colleges, I would suggest that the student question the enrollment team as well as the academic advisors in their major about job placement after graduation. I would want to know what's the statistics for students obtaining their degrees and finding a job. Also, the student should investigate whether or not the school has formed partnerships with businesses in the area, which would increase their chances of getting an internship.

1. Start early, plan financially for college, search for scholarships and grants, try not to create large amount of school loans. 2. Begin with the basics, you do not have to decide what you?re going to do for the rest of your life at the age of 18. If you still can not decide after 2 years of prerequisites then choose a career that you can do many things with. 3. Students do not take advantage of your parents paying for your tuition. Going to school and having to pay your own way, makes you work harder and appreciate more. 4. When looking at colleges for certain degrees such as nursing makes sure the college is an accredited college. 5. When looking at colleges look at the graduation rate, or success rate. If your going into a program like a medical program check and see what the percentage of students from that college pass the exams given to be in that field.
