I am graduating soon and I want to know how likely it is that I will find a job post-grad. I’m looking for a career in publishing, specifically as an editor for fiction books in the young adult genres. #career #editing #writing #publishing #YA

I have a website, but because of my lack of technological know-how, it’s pretty lame. I’m looking for a way to get myself known in the creative writing community. #writing #technology #marketing #self-promotion #author

I am going to have an M.F.A. in Creative Writing, and ideally would like to use that degree to get paid to write fiction. #creative-writing #writing #author

I am planning on attending a college near me, and I am currently trying to decide if it would be in my best interest to commute to that college or live on campus. It is my understanding that commuting is cheaper, and that's a huge pro for me, however, I am afraid I will not get the experience...

I have narrowed down my plans but, I'm still very unsure as to what I want to do. I want to make sure the career I choose is one I am going to enjoy.

Engineering is one major I'm considering but I don't know what I want to know. I'm afraid I have a different idea of what actually happens after schooling. I can see what classes those in that major take and what companies they may work for, but how different is the class work to an actual...

I'm currently a High School senior and am very much undecided about my future or college major. I plan on going to a local Community College to try to figure out my path. So what are your experiences going in undecided? Should I go the general education route and then transfer to a 4 year with...

I have social anxiety, and I don't know if I have to participate in clubs and activities. Some say we need to, others say we don't. Does it vary from school to school? Will I be shunned if I am inactive in student life? I'm not the best at making friends, and with my anxiety, it's extra hard. I...

Will it be extremely expensive if you change your mind on what you want to do? I'm indecisive and I'm afraid I'll put myself into debt if I decide I don't want to be a pharmacist anymore. I don't know how the process works. Should I just suck it up and stay with it? #college #finance

I want to become a medicinal chemist; however, I would like to create medicines through plants. Thus, I would like to know if anyone has discovered any plants that have healing properties. #scientist #medicine #botany

I did research on the autoimmune disease Lupus. I discovered that there is an molecular compound called Silica in cement, and it seems to cause lupus; thus, I am wondering if there is a safer material that can be used that is about the same price as cement. #construction

I'm looking into majors such as human development, neuroscience, psychology, and biology. Are there other majors I should consider? Thanks!

I'm interesting in seeing what OTs did to prepare for their careers. Observations? Internships? Research? Volunteering?

College is a big transition in a teenagers life, so I was wondering if there are tips to ease this process. #tips #goingtocollege

I am asking because I plan on playing sports in college, and I’m curious to hear from someone who is currently playing a sport in college and how they handle the academics.

My mother raised me and my two brothers by herself. One brother has graduated college and moved out of state. My other brother and I will both be leaving for college in August. I'm excited about going and I know my mother is excited for me. But I worry about her being by herself and having to...

UPDATE: Just got the acceptance I was waiting for today!!! So today is April 1st, and everything I've read says colleges notify applicants by April 1st. There are two schools I still have not heard from. At one school an admissions counselor reached out to me to ask me about some things on...

I am homeschooled and I read once that some colleges are skeptical about transcripts from home schooled students. I worry about being accepted because my ACT score isn't great.

#homeschool

I have a good GPA but a low ACT score. I've looked at a lot of school websites, and my ACT score is lower than the low range of students they accept. I worry about being rejected because of the ACT score. #worriedaboutgettingin

I am interested in NC State University, and will be taking a tour this spring with my class. I am wondering what the experience is like there. #University #college

I am a prospective history major wanting to become a museum curator or archivist. I am wondering how life is as a museum curator and what the job is like. #museums #history #career

I'm trying to decide where I want to study

Since a lot of high schools weight their GPAs differently, and since SATs and ACTs are standardized, I was wondering which aspect makes more of a difference when applying to colleges.

I know all students learn differently, especially students with special needs. For future reference I am curious as to how does one make sure that you communicate effectively with each student, so that they all learn and understand. #special-education #being-an-elementary-teacher...

I am asking because as a student we have a list of classes that we should take as education majors to graduate, but I always wonder if there are any classes that a future educator should take that is not in the set list of classes that students take. Classes that would help out even more in...

I don't really understand and like learning things about websites if it doesn't have to do anything with graphic design. Learning about websites should be learned if you want to be a web designer and not a graphic designer. #websites #graphic-design #design #information-technology-and-services

I am a high junior who wants to get a bachelors degree in graphic design. Different colleges offer bachelors in graphic design but either bachelors in arts or science. I would love to know the difference, so I can go from their. Thank You! #graphic-design
