I've heard going to professor office hours can be beneficial but am unsure how to approach it. #professor #office-hours

As an incoming freshman in college, I'm excited about classes, making new friends, and joining extracurricular activities. However, am nervous I could get overwhelmed with work and commitments. What is the best way to prioritize in college? #prioritizing #time-management

I like doing a lot of things but do you have to be really good at it to think of making it a career? #hobby #career-choice #career-path

I want to go into the industry but do not know if I should wait till after school is over and how to get started with the process. #filmislife #career-path #career

I feel like I will join a lot of clubs and have different classes. I want to know when it is okay to take a break, or stop doing an activity or just know if I am just taking the easy way out. #dotoomuch #howdoyouknow #study-skills #mental-health

I'm not the richest man or the most well connected man, but I do intend to pursue a higher education so I want some guidance as to what I can do to earn money that wont take too much time out of my education. #college-jobs #money #money-management

I've always been a hard worker, and I don't plan to stop that. I know life is going to get harder so I wanted some techniques or plans that could help me better organize myself. #organizational-development #high-stress

I always hear my older brother talk about having to get enough credit hours for the semester but I never really understood what it meant

Some college reps have said that keeping your major undecided is better and I just want to know if thats true.
#majors

I'm not sure what I'll be studying yet but I am leaning towards medicine, chemistry or music. I feel like I'm going to end up changing my major, and I would like to know ahead of time how to do it.

I need to do an internship before I graduate but I'm not sure if the sites I go on are giving me legitimate information.

I am asking because I am going into Culinary and networking is very important in order to be considered for anything or even to be acknowledged. I am asking because I want to excel in my field and I need tips. #Culinary #JWU #FututreChef #networking

I've never been one to study, just pay careful attention in class. I want to get into studying since the end of the semester is coming up and colleges will be asking for my grades.

#studying #studying-tips

I would like to interact with many more people in my future major(through internships . workshops, or jobs) but I don't know how and I fear that it may be too late.

I am excited about beginning the second quarter of my life, however, the aching fear is always scratching my back. I am scared to go to many places because I do not want to deal with racism but I know I have to encounter it one day. I know my first reaction will be to cry but I want to be able...

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

I need to pick classes soon and would like to start on a career path but I am interested in so many things. #undecided

I'm not so much asking about or for examples of jobs that use pure or applied mathematics as I am asking about the work environment of pure and applied mathematics. What's the work like in both? What's similar and what's different?

#maths

While I know the image of "people in suits crunching numbers" is wholly false, I'm not actually all that sure about what mathematicians (whether they're studying topology, physics, or any branch beyond) commonly do as a part of their occupation. Is it more akin to individual work or research in...

I am definitely going to do marching band, and I know some colleges require curricular band to participate. However, not all of the schools I applied to require this. #band #music #minors

I am already majoring in mechanical engineering, but should I pick another field for grad school, like robotics? #engineering

Is one test easier? More widely accepted or preferred? Does it depend on what state you plan to practice in? #FNP #APRN #boardcertified

I am currently in a DNP program but there are masters program that take less time to complete and you can still work as a nurse practitioner. Is the extra school to get the doctorate worth it? #DNP #FNP

I would like to know if the need for phlebotomist will increase or if it's expected to decline in the future. #phlebotomy

Sometimes the workload from assignments and frustration from not understanding material can be overwhelming. Are there resources provided to help students during these times or during midterm and finals? #college-stress

Sometimes you can't understand what you're reading unless you break it down to annotate, and annotating takes long itself to do. Do all subjects require to do that as well?
#reading #writing #education #college

I'm asking this because college can take up a lot of your personal time. Like will there be a lot of homework everyday for every subject? There will be deadlines around the same time so what can you do to turn it in on time.

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...

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...

Right now I'm somewhat torn between majors. Depending on what school I attend I will choose a different major. Illinois Tech is my number one school right now, and seems to be the school I will most likely attend, and I'll be studying architecture. The field has always interested me and I've...

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....

I am hoping to pursue a career in biomedical engineering. However, I will likely work in an electrical product engineering position for a non-biomedical company following graduation. How will biomedical companies I apply for in the future see this? Will this experience help me or will they...

I am hoping to pursue a career in Biomedical Engineering. Since this field is so broad and full of various areas of concentration, I want to know what areas professionals think are the best to begin with. What areas will help those new to industry narrow down their interests and applicable...
