Which one is more beneficial to devote your time to?

Does having a part-time job matter to #college or do they prefer it if you're more involved in school activities?

Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or Computer Science?

I'm interested in all 3 majors, but which one would be best? Which one has more jobs with a better salary? How many years of study would I be needing?

Should I reach for Ivy League schools?

I'm first-generation and minority with parents that don't speak English. If I were to reach for such advanced institution, I will be promising a better future for my descendants... right? Do I really want to overwhelm myself in High School in an attempt to get accepted to one of these schools?...

How do you decide of the school is right for you?

I have a lot of schools that I'm choosing from some of which are HBCUs and others are PWIs. Some are bigger schools and some are smaller schools. I'm not sure where I would like to go so I applied to many schools. I don't know how to narrow down my schools to one.#collegedecisions

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?
