Going to a community college then a university?
Do you have to take the SAT/ACT first to get in after community college?
Any other tips in High school (If you do) for example writing a paper?
Thank you

Here are my facts: I am minority Mexican-American, coming from a low-income family. My overall G.P.A is 3.85, I am currently taking four AP courses my senior year. I played football all four years, and started all four. Currently in senior cabinet, which is leadership. Have volunteered to work for the Red-Cross. Had plenty of work experience and I am ranked 22 out of 468 seniors. My only doubt are my SAT scores. Not so good. 1510. (will re-take it in December) SO do I have a chance?

I have a couple friends that go to Devry, 1 for undergrad, and 1 for a masters. They both attend class in person, NOT online, have real professors (1 accounting professor is a CFO for publicly traded company, and an IT professor was director of IT, etc.), They take written exams and do real course work like projects/assignments/end of chapter problems. I've seen examples of both of their work and it doesn't look "fake" or "online only" at all.

Devry/Keller is regionally accredited like many other "traditional"schools. The only knock on them I can see is that they don't have specific program accreditation (AACSB for example).

I'm thinking about attending Keller Grad School (I have a "brick and mortar" 4 yr. B.S. degree), but all I hear is negative, and they get lumped in with University of Phoenix's bad rep. Do the people that trash these places actually have 1st hand experience or is it mostly generic rumor/speculation?

Don't say it "isn't accredited" b/c it is.

Thanks!

I'm a sophomore in high school. I know that you're going to say its to early to start worrying about college and i should just focus on grades but I know because of the increased number of people going to college that will raise the standards for the top universities. So what would the new bar be set at only A's and 2000 on sat?

I am reading about physcology on the website for a college, and it says "offered undergraduate degrees in Psychology since 1953 and graduate degrees in Psychology since 1961."

I want to work in film (writing, directing, etc.) but I don't know what college to go to. I get good grades and I did very well on the SAT when I took it in 7th grade. I just need an idea on what school to go to. I sort of want to go to a big college and out of the midwest. Also, I am involved in many things around school. I don't think I will have much trouble getting into college I just need to know where to go. I am a freshman in high school.

I can have (realistically) about a 3.75 by the time I graduate.
I'm adequetely smart and a good test-taker so I'm hoping to pull off close to a 700 on my GMAT.

What are the chances of getting a full ride? I think my GPA seems a little low. =(

Hello,

I have an interest in going into the International Business or International Law field, I am currently working on my undegraduate degree in psychology, still trying to decide on what to minor in ( straight business or International Business, why i question the international business is because its core requirement is made basically up of political science courses, where as the business core is just made up of accounting, financial management courses, legal courses, so its somewhat a tough decision, or I could just minor in International Studies and study foreign languages). Anyways to get to the point of my question above, even though I am working on a BA psych degree, is it possible that I can get into a Business school or Law school without a degree in those fields? Thanks (serious answers please)

What's the most common way of finding a job? Does your counselor help you out after you graduate, newspaper ads?? It seems like the internet is kinda limiting and arbitrary.

Well, I've only read one book by my own. I'm not a fan of reading and writing. But I love learning new vocab and learning how to use English properly. I also feel the need to be better than anyone around me in English (I know, that's kind of selfish :P) and know more than the average person (Grammer vocab...etc). Is that enough to major in English?

I know that my English sucks now. But I didn't even go to high school due to health and family problems. And I don't know how I passed middle school, because I couldn't study anything. I had to learn everything on my own. So I think my English is ok considering my situation. I just got my GED and planning to study Enlish at a community college here in Florida. I am just not sure if I should do so because I am not into reading and writing. Do you think I should pick another major and that I shouldn't major in English? Does everyone studying English like reading and writing?

Thanks in advance!

I like all three of these books (Business law, Intro to Bus., and Personal Finance). But they are not from my major. I also need the money . And the longer i wait to decide, the less likely I will get much money for these books because the publishers always put out new revisions.
What should I do?
