Winnetka, Illinois

I attend the University of Michigan where I major in communications and minor in entrepreneurship. I've heard it said many times that entrepreneurship can't be taught & that you either have it or you don't. While to a certain extent I believe that statement, I also have greatly benefited from...

I am going to be a college freshman but am undecided about what my major is. I would love to play baseball professionally and will be playing baseball in college. #teaching #teacher #majors #students #undecided #baseball #coaches

I am going to be a college freshman, my dream would be to play baseball professionally but I have to be realistic and know that I need my college degree to be successful. #baseball #athletes #coaches

Should I visit before I apply, like in the summer after my junior year? Or after I apply and get accepted?
Because why would I visit a place that might not accept me? #campus-visit #college-admissions #college-selection

I know that public colleges in Illinois are required to accept 3's on AP exams, which I might have gotten, but I also hear that private colleges can offer more financial aid.
At which type of college would I end up saving more money? #financial-aid #ap-exam

I am thinking about becoming a nurse and I was wondering if there were any major factors that I might want to know about before proceeding a degree. #nursing #nurse #healthcare #hospital-and-health-care

I want to know is it is worth the extra money to become more qualifies or if the label of a degree is less important in the scheme of things. #nursing

My current major is Apparel Merchandising and Product Development and with me being in Ohio, the jobs can be limited because it is not one of the larger, more fashion driven states. Would it be too risky to stick with it , and chance the possibility of relocating? #career #career-counseling

I recently thought I found the perfect major and minor. I was really excited to finally go from undecided to declaring my current major/minor, Apparel Merchandising and Product Development/Marketing. I was glad to finally share my decision with family and friends, only to have them make me...

I really enjoyed art and I can't think of any other career to pursue, however I have been told that animation is a really bad career to pursue. I was hoping if somebody could tell me a piece of information that would help me feel more positive and assured that going into animation isn't a bad...

Hello! I'm interested in pursuing a career in animation but I don't have much experience in the field. I was hoping on receiving some helpful advice on what it is like to be an animator. #animation #career-plan

I am a recently graduated high school senior going on to pursue a degree in neuroscience at the University of Illinois at Chicago. My concern was if students who didnt apply for work-study would have a hard time finding internships. #internships #financial-aid

I am a recently graduated high school student, and I am majoring in Neuroscience at the University of Illinois at Chicago. I want to minor in Spanish and vocal performance. I am asking because I am unsure of how to minor in those particular fields of study while having a filled schedule for...

I am planning to get a master's degree in speech pathology and am then considering continuing on to become an audiologist. I was wondering if most people continue to work as a speech pathologist while attending additional classes to become an audiologist or if they go to school full-time...

I am planning to study speech pathology, and I know you need to have a master's degree in most states in order to practice. I am wondering if that is the case for all states or if some require additional education or a test to become certified to practice. #speech-pathology #audiologist

I'm possibly interested in pre-med, but am wondering if it is best to go into it directly, or if it is possible to go into it in say, my second year of college and how that may affect my time in school. Thanks! #doctor #medicine #pre-med #medical-school #undergraduate

Although the point of college is to learn and become educated for future careers, I've been told the importance of networking. I am wondering, from others' personal experiences, how being social and networking may have helped them build their careers. #college #career #graduate #social #networking

I recently took a class on different types of psychotherapy and it had me wondering why people decide on what psychological path is best for them. #doctor #psychology #therapy #clinical-psychology

I am studying to be a psychologist and I have a great interest in criminal profiling. I understand to be accepted into the BAU most agents have been working 7-10 years. I understand there are 5 different ways to be accepted into the FBI but I'm wondering if there is a simple or a different way...

I know there are many different career paths for people with degrees in Economics but from your experience, what kinds of salaries are available to recent graduates with degrees in Econ? #business #finance #accounting #job #economics #salary #financial-planning

I will be a college freshman in September and I plan to pursue a premedical track, but I am already worried about how my family and I will be able to afford the next 8 years of school. #doctor

I have seen very successful Bar and Grills in slow and very busy locations. How do you, or how did you decide on where to build your Bar? What do you look for in a customer base and how did you get them coming back? #business #real-estate #restaurants

I have always wanted to own and operate my own bar and grill. I have been working in the food service industry since high school, and am now getting the business background I want to help insure I understand the ins and out of the business world. I have asked a few local successful Bar owners...

I am currently stuck between three different majors because they are all so similar. I know what career I want to pursue but I also know that it might take a while to get there. I want to make sure that I am choosing the right major so I can have enough versatility and not be at a stand still,...

I really need money both for college and for my pockets. I've heard people say not to get a job as soon as you start college and to wait until you get settled in and I've heard the exact opposite.

I have a fear of my age may deny me some opportunities in my new degree field and was wondering if I do go for my masters would it benefit me more at my age. #human-resources

I am an adult learner and am a little older than most in switching careers. I am a Navy Veteran and served my country for 12 years and finally decided to pursue a degree where I can help people. #college #business #career #career-counseling #human-resources

I don't want to be confused after graduation as to what am I do I to do next. I want to know if I have to start in internships or residencies. #teaching #education

When i go to college, I may want to spend a semester in Europe. I'm not sure if colleges cover that or if you have to come out of pocket with your money. #study-abroad

My instructor told us that we don't get certification in our program because "you can't certify talent." That being said, how do I know when my skills are adequate? What kind of training is most important for a graphic designer- knowledge in the software, artistic skill, or raw creativity?...

Is it better for a graphic designer specifically to work freelancing from home or AT a business, for a business? What are the pros and cons to both? I know this is the career field I want to enter, but I'm not sure what the best way to go about it is. Thanks! #design #graphics

Hi I'm Alexis I'm currently a rising Junior whose interested in both Biology and Psychlogy. I believe that the mind and body and closely intertwined, yet u can't necessarily find a career path that combines the importance of both. I like biology because it has all of the medical background with...

I plan on majoring in art in college but I am not really sure what I will be able to use it for after college. So, I would think that going to an even higher level of education for it would be futile, but then again it might help. #phd

My major is currently set as accounting as I start college in the fall, but I am still unsure what the best path is for determining a minor. I know I am interested mostly in business, but don't know exactly what else to study besides accounting. #business #accounting #job #major #future-careers...

I am planning on majoring in accounting, but I am beginning to worry as I've heard comments about how technology will decrease the demand for accountants and therefore getting a job will be increasingly difficult. #technology #jobs #accounting #majors #demand

College is expensive and I am wondering if I should take out student loans or not. If I have to start paying it off right away and not after college, then I do not want to get them because I do not have a lot of money as of now. #college

When applying to internships and jobs, what are the best and most important ways to make yourself stand out from the pool of applicants? #internships #job-search #resume #job-applications

I know some people prefer to major in math and others just take the major in economics, but is there a preference in the labor force? Will the demand for one be higher, and which one is more flexible to getting a job? #business #accounting #math

I was rejected as a Ross pre-admit at the University of Michigan, so I started thinking about what would happen to me if I never got in, even for regular admission of Ross. I heard people who major in economics at LSA (the general studies college at UMich) are not nearly as successful as those...
