I figured that while NT might be consist of a primarily younger population, there are quite a few college graduates/those with higher level degrees that could provide insight/advice on the topic.
This thread could serve as a forum for current High School/College students that have questions or are looking for guidance.
College can be a very complex stage in a young person's life and sometimes one does not have the people around them to help guide them or point them in the right direction during this pivotal stage in your life.
College is not for everyone nor is it a requirement to succeed in life. Obtaining a college education is important, but it is equally important to recognize that college is not for you or something you desire.....therefore do not waste your time/money wandering aimlessly through 3 or 4 semesters of general education classes building up debt that you cannot afford.
The end goal of college shouldn't be to simply graduate, but rather to finish with some legitimate career opportunities. No one wants to have to graduate from college with 40K in student loan debt and go work at Foot Locker........and you dont 'have to if you spend your time/energy wisely why you are enrolled your in academic institution.
Feel free to post any questions/topics.
