I'm going into the computer science major but I was wondering if it would be smart to take up a second major or to just get a minor in another interest. I know taking on a second major means a lot more workload but it also looks a lot better to employers. Just wondering what the smartest...

I’m considering going into a STEM career & majoring in STEM in college but I’ve heard it’s hard being a woman and finding a career in it because of the male dominant community.

One of my possible majors is biochemistry and I was wondering what job options there are. #curiosity

I know we all have a hard time with money and school and bills. Does anyone have some good advice on how to save and then continue to save. I have had a savings account for a good year now and it just seems like I am not making enough money to even put money in my savings account. and how do...

I am a photography major and I went to Loyola University for my first two years and decided to move home to finish an Associates degree. I moved home mainly because of my money situation. I hoped that by finishing my associates I would be able to find a job that I would like to turn into a...

I hear that it's tough to get a job in journalism, even though the country will always need journalists. #journalism #job #career

How did college get so expensive? College used to be nearly affordable, and other countries, especially in Europe, have affordable college. #college #money #unitedstates

I am currently going through JROTC, and I am looking to go into the officer candidate program. I would like to get into the Air Force Academy, and I think that will better my chances. I have already started the long and grueling application progress, and have gotten into contact with my...

Many people say that they change their majors multiple times. And there are other people that say they changed their career many times (the national average is 5 different careers per person). But how do you know which one is the one for you? Is there a way that it will appear as the best...

I enjoy learning and I like school, but I have this bad habit of losing motivation and focus. I usually get discouraged after receiving negative feedback or a bad test grade which then only makes me get even worse scores due to lack of motivation. Any tips on how to stay motivated and ask for...

I'm majoring in Bio-engineering but it's such a big field that I'm not entirely sure of what subset I want to go into. I really like genetics and animals are there any possible fields that would involve those ? #bioengineering #engineering #college-major #stem #academic-advising #career-advice

For a multitude of #scholarships, I have been asked to provide letters of #recommendation and I am at a loss for who I should ask. I am a wrestler and pole vaulter but I have little faith in my coaches ability to draw up a well-written letter that would help my case. I am not involved in any...

I have always struggled with being #organized with my classes and homework. Everything gets done on time but its kind of a hot mess of a system. I keep a #planner but its always overflowing with notes and reminders. I honestly think I need a better system seeing as I usually forget about the...

If I become certified with IJCAHPO (International Joint Commission on Allied Health Professionals in Ophthalmology) after graduating with my Associates, I can pretty much find a career in another country. If there is anyone working abroad or internationally in the medical field, I am interested...

The reason I ask this is because I am going to college to become an Ophthalmic Technician and I graduate in May 2019. With technology moving at a fast pace, I wonder if my professors will be able to create advanced lessons and labs in regards to the medical advancements occurring in the future....

Also, how can I land an internship in college and what year of college is best to complete one? What other things should I do in college to give me a more competitive edge for jobs when I graduate?

My goal is to work in journalism, however I'm not sure which major would be best. I know that journalism is a competitive major, and an international relations degree offers more versatility, so I would like to study both. My choices are to major in journalism and minor in international...

Every student is given the same test. Each student learns and struggles differently compared to his or her peers. My opinion, rather than creating a set level which every student must work on, creating a level for each student will reduce stress on the student to compete with other students....

I ask this question because I am from the south side of Chicago, Illinois and I have seen many students going through school with little or no encouragement to grow and become better. I plan on becoming a teacher and teaching on the south side where there is a high chance I will face this...

I want to live somewhere that the job opportunities are ample and I can provide for my family but I also don't want to end up in a bad area or somewhere that is known for paying less in the profession I am going into.

I am on the path of becoming a CRNA which is a lot of school and work. After graduating with my BS in nursing I have to work for two years in an ICU but I'm worried I won't even be making enough money to pay for grad school by doing that.

While working on homework is it often that you have a question that doesnt get answered. In such a large group of people I am nervous that my questions eventually won't get answered and I will be stuck not fully understanding my work or being able to grasp the concept. #studytime

I'm pretty worried that in entering college I will get lost in the school aspect of things as I try to maintain good grades and I won't make a bunch of friends. #college #balance #time-management

I know of people who effortlessly do side businesses to bring extra income, however I could never understood what factors play into being able to even begin thinking about what kind of business to do. #business-owner #business #business-development

I've heard stories of super-human effort which seem nearly impossible to do, not because of lack of energy, but due to lack of time. How do some people manage to do all of that and still have time for a breather? #stem #part-time #college #academic-advising

I am asking because I plan to go into law enforcement. I want to know if these internships exist and if it is recommended I seek one out. Where do I even look? #law-enforcement #police #internships #police-and-law-enforcement #law-enforcement-internships #chicago-police

I want be as ready and prepared as I can when starting college. I want to avoid mistakes many generations of students make when starting college.
