I'm asking this because I am uncertain of the type of jobs that make a major in creative writing useful. #creative-writing #college-major #college-advice #job-search

I'm asking this question because I love to write and would adore a major in creative writing however, being a psychologist supplies a solid monetary standing. #psychology #creative-writing #college #college-major

I have wanted to go to Notre Dame since I was a young boy. I understand that I may not have given enough information, but I want to have a better rough understanding of my chances of getting into Notre Dame. I think that I have about a 1/3 chance of making it. #college #college-admissions...

Should I plan a college schedule and course list with the thought of a job in mind, or should I just create my schedule based on class availability and find a job that fits that realm after?

I am a high school junior, and I am unsure of if I should choose my dream school (Notre Dame) over a school that is about as good but less expensive. I obviously have not applied to any schools yet, but I am trying to prepare for when I do. #college #financial-aid #choosing-a-college #colleges...

I'm about to start college in the fall, and I'm applying for scholarships and saving up from working part-time. I understand how to earn money from college, I just don't know how payment works. Will I have to pay for classes before school starts, will it all hit me after I receive my degree?...

Like many, this is my first time away from home for an extended time. I am nervous about managing my personal focus and organization skills without support. I look forward to the social aspect of going to college, but worry about managing my studies in a timely manner. I know of support...

For your areas of interest, how do you plan to manage your areas of study? I know some students with a double major and 4 minors. Is this the expectation? The new standard that we have to compete with? Or is this what works for a percentage of our peers? What combination of major & minor do...

College is a big transition in a teenagers life, so I was wondering if there are tips to ease this process. #tips #goingtocollege

I am asking because I plan on playing sports in college, and I’m curious to hear from someone who is currently playing a sport in college and how they handle the academics.

My mother raised me and my two brothers by herself. One brother has graduated college and moved out of state. My other brother and I will both be leaving for college in August. I'm excited about going and I know my mother is excited for me. But I worry about her being by herself and having to...

UPDATE: Just got the acceptance I was waiting for today!!! So today is April 1st, and everything I've read says colleges notify applicants by April 1st. There are two schools I still have not heard from. At one school an admissions counselor reached out to me to ask me about some things on...

Many college admissions officers and guidance counselors push students to find their passions in high school. At the ripe age of 15 or 16, students are expected to know exactly which career they would like to pursue and the impact they want to have in the world. However, many students do not...

Colleges always ask prospects for their top interests and expect them to know which field they would like to study in. Unfortunately, the majority of students have no idea what they are truly interested in or have a passion in. This being said, how can study better prepare themselves for the...

I've looked around a little at law schools before, and it seems like most keep their international law and human rights programs separate. I could be wrong in how this works (feel free to correct me!) but are there any reputable or notable programs that actually combine both? How might I...

I plan to chase after a career in international human rights law, working with NGO's like Amnesty International or the EU court of human rights. With that in mind, I've thought about minors/ double majors in subjects like Spanish or international studies, but am still undecided what subject...

Should you join an organization in your major or something fun and interesting? #medicine #university #black-students #organization #college

Hi, I am senior in high school and about to go off to college. I am currently enrolled in a program to become Certified Medical Assistant. I really want to be able to afford college and take some financial burden off my parents by working as a CMA part-time. Also, I will be getting exposure to...

Hi, I am currently a senior in high school who will be attending college this fall semester. I aspire to become a doctor one day. I understand that I would have to be on the pre-med track in college to be considered by medical schools. I am a little confused on my major right now. I did ask a...

I am one of the only people in my family, the first child, to go to college. We do not know what to expect. How can I start preparing for this change that is about to occur? This will also be the first time I am going to be away from my parents; I will be living in a dorm. How can I get...

I am bowling in college, but I am also going to become a math teacher after college. I want to enjoy college, but it will be busy. I would like to know how to do both at the same time. #college #time-management #teaching

Is a degree in illustration or graphic design or sequential arts necessary for a career in comics? Or could I just have a decent portfolio to prove my talents? #cartoons #comic-books #cartooning

Is there something more to being a successful graphic novelist than just artistic ability? Do I need connections, knowing the right people? #comics #graphic-novels

I've already taken the PSAT so I have a general idea of what the SAT is going to be like but I wanted to ask what to expect from the ACT. Thanks!

When I go off to college, I'm planning on dual majoring in education and musical theatre so I was just hoping for a general idea of what that's going to be like.

I know doctors make a good amount of money but how much do they have to pay via taxes, college, and other fees if there are any? Also, since there are many fields in medicine, is it possible to become a doctor in two professions at once? Like being a psychiatrist and a dermatologist? #medicine...

I aspire to be a dermatologist and I wonder how their life is outside of work. Like do they have a lot of free time if any and what are their typical hours? Also, do they always work at a hospital or can they have their own business? #medicine #business #dermatologist

I am going into this particular field, and would like to know what all the job options would be, even the not so common ones. #jobs #child-psychology

I’m asking because I recently signed with a college swim team to swim with them, and I’m not sure how to prepare myself for the drastic changes between high school swim and college swim. I want to do what I can to be mentally and physically prepared so that I can represent the school to the...

I want to get the most out of studying abroad because it is a once in a lifetime opportunity. However, I am nervous that I am going to be too shy to talk to the people there. #Spain #study-abroad #foreign-languages

I am trying to apply to as many scholarships as possible, but I always feel like I do not stand out enough. #financialaid #collegeisexpensive #collegedebt

I am homeschooled and I read once that some colleges are skeptical about transcripts from home schooled students. I worry about being accepted because my ACT score isn't great.

#homeschool

I have a good GPA but a low ACT score. I've looked at a lot of school websites, and my ACT score is lower than the low range of students they accept. I worry about being rejected because of the ACT score. #worriedaboutgettingin

I would like to pursue my dreams of becoming a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner but I am scared of actually staying committed to it because If its too competitive I'm worried I will be jobless once I graduate from college. #psychiatric-nurse-practitioner

I'm asking this question because I already know when I graduate I am going to have debts to pay off so I would like to start saving so by the time I graduate I already have some funds to go towards paying off the debt. #savemoneylivebetter

After a bachelors of fine art, what is the hurdles a newly graduated artist must face? As someone who is planning to get a bachelors of fine art where should one do after college. I'm scared of the future and I have been told by my parents that becoming a professional artist is not a...

I'm wondering how people were able to pay for college. As a rising college freshmen, I'm anxious about how to pay for my own college tuition. And I desperately want to figure out a way for me to attend college without burdening my parents or myself. I already know about scholarships and...

I am going to college next year and I haven't done any internships yet. I plan on doing some during the summer after my freshman year. Do companies put emphasis on internships before college? #internships

I am going to be majoring in computer science so I want to know and start preparing.

I am considering pursuing fashion journalism, but I don't know what the lifestyle of a journalist is. Is it mostly a desk job or would there be more walking around?
#fashion #journalism #choosing-a-career

I have many interests, and I am still somewhat undecided. I want to keep my options open, but I don't know if I would be able to pursue more than one interest in college.
Thank you.

I know that there are several options for undergraduate degrees that I could do before pursuing a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. I could do Pre-Med, an undergraduate in Biophysical Sciences, or basically, anything else that satisfies the minimum requirements for the veterinary college I am to...

Interested in further pursuing ancient Greek or Latin, curious as to how deeper study in those areas influences literary perceptions. #english-literature #classical-studies #literature #college-major

I'm incredibly fond of the idea of melding my interests in both chemistry and engineering/experimental work, and I'm interested in what the challenges of these fields might be, or how they might differ. #engineering #chemical-engineering #materials-science

I'm trying to decide where I want to study
#study-abroad #college

Since a lot of high schools weight their GPAs differently, and since SATs and ACTs are standardized, I was wondering which aspect makes more of a difference when applying to colleges.

I've seen some scholarships online for Juniors, but not as much. Are there any other websites that offer a lot of scholarships? If not what are ways or programs that offer scholarship money?
