College is amazing! I was a shy nerdy kid in high school… then came college and I realized that I was surrounded by people with brains and ambition! Some colleges are more academically intense… while others leave more time for beer pong and sleeping in. You’ll be responsible for your own laundry, cleaning, possibly cooking, studying, signing up for classes and clubs, basically everything but paying the bills (unless your parents are making you pay, in which case I’m sorry, you have that too). It is really great. You’ll meet lots of new friends and get to know your living mates really well. You’ll be exposed to a lot of different cultures, and see what other people’s traditions are like. I don’t even know how to put into words how amazing college is. When you go home for the summer… if you do… you’ll be happy to see old friends, but sad to be away from your new ones. Also: colleges usually have big class sizes the first couple years… don’t sit way in the front if your profs use a projector, but if you sit in the back you might fall asleep! I think college in one word is EXCITING! You will (hopefully) have the time of your life – I know I am!

PS I LOOOOOOOVE college! Woooohoo!

College is really fun, with parties, beer, new people, but there is also a serious side that expects you to be an adult. This means working with others, turning papers in on time, making sure that all your work is done to the best of your ability because your grades reflect to an employer how seriously you took your opportunity. Study but take time for yourself and goof off once in awhile.

Well most are right, but if you party too much you get on Academic Probation.

They drop you from college if you don’t keep up at least a 2.8 GPA and most want a 3.2 GPA or better.

So be prepaired to work.

The libraries stay open til 11 PM and when you’re given a history paper to write they don’t want to see ENCYLPEDIA BRITIANCA they want 7-14 sources.

I absoulutely hated high school, but I like college. The food is great, people are more mature, professors actually know what they are doing, sporting events are a blast to go to, friday night movies ,etc, etc.

I am community college and I love it. I had so many staff members who have helped me. Their names are Laura,Heidi, Jill and Regina. So, try and get to know some of the staff members. They will love to help you out by talking to you,helping you out getting involved in different activities and show you around.

College is like summer camp with beer, big parties and classes.

Like High School except you make your own schedule and people are more mature.

College is stupid. I hate college. I am so ready to enter the real world….

one word: FUN!!!!
