Answer 1

I will be entering college this fall at Georgia State University. As far as the experience, well I haven't actually lived there yet but I like Atlanta and it's fast pace so I imagine college there will be the same. And yes I believe college is what you make of it. If you pick a sensible, decent paying major, with a steady demand and do your best to succeed in all your classes then you are bound to be successful.

Answer 2

College is often what you make of it. I spent more than 10 years in college and now I teach in one. Make sure that the field you want to study is strong at the university you select. You can find that out online, of course. The social scene varies from place to place, so that all depends on where you go. I did my undergrad at Florida State--great party school, but not too rigorous academically. Some of the departments were tough, and I tried to take classes in those subjects. I then did my graduate work at one of the UC schools out west. Do you like living in urban setting or do you prefer a suburb or rural environment? That is important, too, in selecting a university, since you will spend several years there. Good luck.

Answer 3

For Me college was hard at times and even though the job I do now has nothing to do with my degree I don't regret it at all. College can be tremendously rewarding. If it isn't you are probably not in the right frame of mind; or maybe it's your major that doesn't fit you. Just remember you are there to learn and don't let yourself be distracted or led astray by all the players, head gamers, trust fund babies and other assorted fools you meet.
