I have to define a college student and I just have no idea where to even start. I got a topic sentance but I think it's kind of weak and broad and I can't support it well "Every college student can be defined separately based on what he or she aspires to pursue in life". Can anybody please give me another way to start off this definition of college student?

"Every college student is an individual being, defined by his/her current lifesyle and aspirations for the future".
In other words, no 2 students are the same. Each one has an individual way of life, and each one has different plans, hopes and dreams. Hope this helps.

It's a poor concept and a poor sentence as far as the meaning goes. "Defined separately" as opposed to "defined individually." Separately sounds like they are all in different physical spaces.
College students rarely know exactly what they aspire to and go to college to find out. A person may aspire to be an actor, but goes to college to get a degree in science so he/she can earn a living to fulfill the dream.
That quote could be about everybody. We are all individuals, no two alike. Sounds a bit philosophical. Hope some of this helps!

Way too broad. I am assuming from your question that you are writing a paragraph about college students (rather than an entire essay). Is your topic something broad like "Define a college student"? What is your prompt.
What you want to do is make a list of answers to the following question(s): What is a college student like? What attributes do college students possess?
Once you have a list or two, pick one thing from your list that you feel you can elaborate on and develop that into your topic sentence. Good luck!

That's easy... I'm like a writer far beyond the human mind.. it's intense... you have the right concept just word it up a lil bit...
The definition of a college student cannot be depicted through the expectations of society, but through the aesthetics of their apired careers.
Try that? if not i should roll under a moving van
