How did you transition from being a part-time college student to attending full-time?

I'm going to be starting college in the spring semester, so in the mean time I'm taking a chemistry class and working. I'm looking forward to starting school, but I'm interested to know how others handled this transition!

What was it like to go into nursing after graduating with a bachelor's degree in a related field?

When I applied for college I wasn't sure what I wanted to do within the medical field, so I applied as a biology major and am currently in a general studies program. I still plan on majoring in biology, but I'm also seriously thinking about going into nursing after. I know there are accelerated...

Will being apart of an Honors College give me career opportunities during and after college?

I'm entering my freshman year of high school and was thinking about trying to get into an Honors College. Is the extra work on my gpa to get into an Honors College worth possibly not having as many extra curricula's on my resume? #HonorsCollege #highschool #freshman #gpa

A long-term goal of mine is to own a business, but I'm unsure of what kind of business I want to have. How do I figure out what I want to do?

A dream of mine is to attend the College of Charleston and major in business. I want to be able to know what my plan is to achieve being a business owner, but first, I need to know what I want my business to be! #business #majors #entrepreneur #CofC #SouthCarolina

How did you feel about starting college in the spring semester?

I got into and decided on my first choice school, but I got into a program where you start in January and then catch-up to everyone during a summer semester abroad. I'm really excited about all of that, but now that the summer is almost over and most of my friends are gearing up to go away and...

How much does where you went to college help, or potentially hurt, getting a job?

Lately I've been reading a lot of "it doesn't really matter where you went to college after you get your first job" kind of things and "the cheapest school is the best option" answers from around the internet. Granted, these aren't necessarily from reputable sources and everyone's experiences...

How do you decide when you want your job to be your career?

I'm going into college and I know that I want to major in biology, but I'm not too sure beyond that. I want to be able to try out different things through internships and maybe part time jobs in school and during grad school after that, but I don't think that even in five or six years from now...

Is joining honor societies (the kind you have to pay for) worth it in college?

I'm not really sure how honor societies work in college to begin with, but I recently received an email about being accepted to one. I looked into it, found it to be real, and logged into the website. After this, though, I found that I would have to pay ($100/year) to be a member and be able to...
