If I were to apply early somewhere (with a binding agreement) and then accepted, would I have the opportunity to turn them down if it turns out I can't afford it? What's the protocol?

I'm afraid I'll be matched with someone really annoying in college. Will there be opportunity to switch rooms? What other ways could I manage this situation?

I plan on attending a veterinary technician program in the fall of 2018. As of right now I have my senior year high school schedule set up but I am looking for advice on any addition classes I should sign up for. I want to be prepared and ahead when I finally start college....

A friend is concerned about choosing the right college when the time comes. There's a conception that the best premed programs feed into the best med schools feed into the best residencies, etc. and if you don't jump on the bandwagon immediately you're done for. Any advice to offer? #college...

I'm not one for being stuck inside all day, and would like to know how often Civil Engineers get to work on a job site.

I've always wanted to be a Civil Engineer, but I know that there are so many different branches of it that I'm not sure which one I want to follow in. #civil-engineering
