I knew a couple who got married while they were still in college. For them it worked out great... I would even say their marriage is better than anybody I know. They have been married for 15 years and have 3 beautiful children. My mom also got married when she was in college, but my dad was out of college at the time so they were financially stable. What advice would you give a college student wishing to get married while they were still in college?

accoring to one of the survey... couple who marry during college years has a higher succes rate. they become more productive and exert more efforts to reach thier goals...
> but my concerns is that when you become pregnant during that year and you have to "leave" the school (maternal leave) and who will take care of your child. it's also good to fininsh school first so that both of you can focus on your work...
>good thing is you're assured that you're already married!
it's still your choice. good luck!

My wife and I were married in college. We've been married 14 years. College is a good distraction from the marriage itself, if that makes any sense. We both graduated as well.

If you dated and know the person for a while, I think yes, go for it. There are no guarantees in life, but if you are both ready and it's right for you, do it. You need to work together and support one another, do not have kids right away, finish your education, get good jobs, save and make sure you are working towards a good future. Good Luck

Wait until you are established in whatever career field that you are in. Make sure you have invested in a house, make sure there are no debts. The better prepared you are the happier and less stress you will be once you do decide to get married. Its different for every couple.

If the couple is going to be together no matter what than why not wait until you are out of college. why would you want the extra stress of planning a wedding while you are supposed to be concentating on your studies.

It depends on the individuals. If they are compatible, good at dealing with stress and particularly optimistic then it's not going to matter when they get married. If you have personal or relationship problems then wait, wait, wait.

True love as no age limit if you are truely in love then I think you should go ahead and do it. True love comes only once in a life time so live it up...

determine in advance whether your financial aid will be affected by the marriage

Best to wait if there is a shred of doubt about timing. If you are sure , go for it.
