Is it better to live on, or off campus for college? (No matter what year)

I know to have a dorm on campus would cost significantly more for tuition opposed to not living on campus. I know that there's pros and cons for both, that's why I'm asking. #college-bound, #dorms

For a person who plans to run for a political office, what will be an ideal office to run for? Keep in mind I only plan to have a bachelors degree, military service with the Army National Guard, and hopefully become a Commisioned Officer?

I enlisted into the Army National Guard before my senior year, I will be attending college in Spring 2019. Once I graduate from an university, I want to run for political office. As a Citizen-Soldier, is there anything I need to do before I can do that?

How can I find a balance in my college decision/choice?

Is it better to spend a lot of money on your dream school?

This is a question that does not necessarily have a concrete answer, but it is one I constantly ponder nonetheless. My father did not go to an expensive school and regrets it, I believe, because he wonders if his college experience may have been better at a more elite school. As I try to make...

What are really good study habits for any subject?

I ask because I have terrible study habits (namely me cramming the night before and even then not really studying like I should). I'm trying to find habits that will help me when I get to classes in college.

Will I have more free time and less stress once I finish college and go to work?

As a #computer-science major in UIC, my many assignments and study hours result in very little time for anything else, including hobbies and sleep. I was wondering whether that is going to change once I have a job, or not.
Similarly, does work give stress as college does?
