Where am I able to find support when I am falling behind in a class or do not understand something? I have decided to go to a larger college and I'm worried about feeling lost and alone. Will there be peer mentors or professor mentors that will be able to help guide me to make the most...

I'm used to relatively small and quiet classes. I want to know what the transition is like and how you adapted to it. Was it harder to learn in large auditoriums and was it difficult to hear and understand the professor? #college-advice #classroom #learning

Many teens struggle to decide between attending a public or a private university. Should one be valued more than the other? If so, why? Personally, I believe it depends on the major one is pursuing.

It always seems as if the most interesting and thought- provoking people that I meet are those who have traveled the world and had many experiences. Do you think traveling is essential to becoming the most educated, influential and intellectual person one can be? #travel #education #importance...

At home I have my own room and it is my safe haven. I’m an introvert. I love spending time with other people, but I need the time to recharge and take a break every day in order to keep myself going. In college I will have at least one roommate if not two or three. I’m doing my best to find a...

I’m only 18 and a senior in high school. I’m young and every day I learn more about myself and my interests, challenges, and strengths. However, this coming fall I’m going to college to pursue a degree in nursing. As much as I feel confident in this choice now, I worry that this will change....

I’m worried about getting physically lost and not knowing where I am going, and therefore being late or missing a class. How quickly do you get the hang of it? And what are some tips for learning your way around? #campuslife

Money is important. We all want to be able to live comfortably. If I get an opportunity to have a stable job with a steady income that I’m not necessarily in love with, real talk should I take it? Or try to find what makes me “happy.”

I'm a full time student and it's really hard to keep my school, work and social life balance. If I'm not at school then I'm at work because I need to pay for school. But how can I also make time for friends? I work 2 jobs because the school I'm attending is pretty expensive. I only have a year...

I am very committed to the close friends that I currently have, and I’m really scared about having to start all over with that. I don’t know how to start conversations with new people or how to make sure I don’t just lock myself away and not talk to anyone... tips? #friends

I’ve been very interested in Greek Mythology for a few years now, and I would love to learn more about it, but I have no idea what types of classes would teach about that sort of stuff #greekmythology

If we are getting the same degree in different colleges, whats the point of going to a state college rather than an Ivy League college? #college #career-decisions

I put the major I would want on my application as Physics but I don't think it'll be the right major for me but I don't know what major is the right one for me.

I need to make a comfortable life for myself and my boyfriend. Will I be able to do that through the IT field? Or anywhere in the computer field? #computer #computer-science #money #information-technology

My goal is to make a very comfortable life for myself but I need to get hired for that to happen. So what should I learn? Should I just try to learn every language I can or will that be a useless effort? #computer #computer-software #computer-science #information-technology

Which jobs can be exciting, which really require you to be exposed to new situations and use critical thinking skills? But be high paying as well? #money #high-paying #job-search

I'm not sure exactly what I want to do with my degree when I get out of college, but I know Mechanical Engineering is the broadest of the engineering disciplines. There are other majors at my school that I could have chosen, like Robotics Engineering or Aerospace, but I don't want to limit...

I’m a sociology majoring who’s concentrating is focusing on social work because I want to be a social worker. I want to help children and families find the right job and make sure they have a safe place to stay. How is my passion going to guarantee them a home? I want to fight for them, be...

Considering majoring in psychology because I find the subject matter interesting but unsure of what jobs there are beyond research and psychologist #psychology #what-kind-of-jobs-can-i-expect.

I have no indication of any field I particularly enjoy and would want to spend the future working in. I don't have much of an idea on how to try and narrow down my interests and decide on a major #college-majors #career-choice

Going into college, I know I want to study journalism. The problem is that I want to study other things to help in my journalism career like anthropology, economics, politics and much more. Not just a few classes, I want to be able to know all of these topics inside and out. I don’t know what...

I love my sport and it is a huge stress reliever for me, causing me to only consider schools with great teams. Usually people make sure their major has a great program at the school and THEN sports/hobbies, but I am doing it backwards. Is that okay as long as my college has my major too? #sport...

I attend Lexington High School which is very academically stressful and competitive. I was one of the many students that pushed myself throughout my four years there and now it seems as though it is expected of me to continue doing so in college right away but I am afraid of becoming burnt out...
